I used to be a huge Asterix fan. I had all the books up until the late 1990s' when I left home and concentrated on adjusting to a sudden thrust into adult life at 15. These days I have to confess they make me cringe a little because although they are funny they are also historically inaccurate; Thanks to having about 80 channels on Satellite TV for history and documentary alone I have become a bit of a History Nazi :-[ :'( But maybe I should just ignore the adult and read them again just for fun, I have been thinking of buying my own collection again...

The first Asterix book I read was Asterix And The Normans; I was about 5 and got told off for emulating Justforkix's efforts to get the Norsemen off of Asterix :D
