Can there ever be a happy ending for star-crossed lovers Melodrama and Histionix, whose fathers are rival chieftains of the same village? The only hope is to call in Asterix, Obelix and Getafix to sort out the feud, the intriguing of the sinister traitor Codfix, and the military might of Rome. Watch out for some interesting new magic potions...

Seven out of ten. CBR format.
When two rival chieftains split their town in half, a pair of young lovers split on either side need Asterix and Obelix to resolve the situation.
LibraryThing member jon1lambert
Struggled with the rhythm of the story which divides a village in two. Asterix and Obelix cause the usual chaos leading to a solution. This is the first Asterix book written by Uderzo following Goscinny's death a few years before.
