Asterix and Obelix come to life in this exquisitely engineered 3D pop-up book from Asterix creators Rene Goscinny and Albert Uderzo and paper engineer, Jose Pons.
Chaos erupts in the camp as Gaul turns on Gaul. Asterix and Obelix take on pirates on the perilous open seas. And the heroes come head-to-head with the troublesome Romans in an epic 3D battle.
Fantastically funny with high-quality paper-engineering throughout, this is the perfect addition to any Asterix collection.

He was the recipient of the Legion d'Honneur, France's highest honour, for services to the arts. Asterix is a best seller in 70 languages
