Asterix and the Golden Sickle by René Goscinny
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The second Asterix book is Goscinny shoving a ton of little gags in between a very good story of the need of a golden sickle. Fulfilling that need becomes more complicated than planned and the chaos begins. The sickle thing is a bit of a silly plot device to send two pals off to adventure, but it works and the involved story ends satisfactorily.
Better still is the illustration work. The artistry is superb in layout, design and line stroke. Excellent work. Some panels are simply brilliant is construction.
Bottom line: I recommend this book. 10 out of 10 points.
