Er, did anyone know there was a new one out this year?!
Asterix and the Picts?!
Right, next stop Amazon!
Okay, hardcover due out October (gonna have to wait for the softcover, I literally don't have space for hardcovers), and by a new pair of chaps. Hmm. Well, it's a hard act to follow, but I'm definately willing to give them a shot. As it could mean a whole slew of more Asterix books (since the rate has dropped off drastically since the eighties and Goscinny died.) I was honestly not expecting to see any more after the lukewarm reception of the last one and given Uderzo is getting on a bit.
Guess we'll see!
