About the book
Two rival chieftains have been elected to govern a village and a ditch dug through the village literally divides it. But the son and daughter of the two chieftains are in love. Asterix, Obelix and the druid Getafix are called in to sort it out. Can they persuade the star crossed lovers' village to reunite against the threat of Julius Caesar's Roman legionaries?
