This was interesting collection. Before anything I would like to state that omnibuses are usually rather tricky - you might enjoy some comic or story teller when you read the stories as they get published but when you try to read them all at once it sometimes gets overwhelming.

First story is Asterix' adventure in far away India. Story is rather straight forward and jokes on famous Gaul troubadour aside story is pretty much straight forward veni-vidi-vici tale.
It seems like they tried to make a crossover of sorts between Iznogood and Asterix but at the last moment decided against it.

Second story is about feminism and its effect on the rather macho-man society in the Gaul village. It is funny to see how relations in the village change in a rather weird and funny way. I suppose that this story might irritate some with ultra PC mindset today (especially unexpected reaction from Asterix) but it is funny to see how everyone in the village is OK with women rights except when they are directly affected.

Third and the last story finally reveals why Obelix is forbidden to drink the magic potion. Same as the first story this one seems little bit rushed and ... uninspired might be the best word I guess but nevertheless entertaining. Atlantis adventure could easily be story in itself but here it is just rather brief event which looks like a missed opportunity.

So all in all solid collection, highly recommended to all fans of Asterix, Obelix and Co :) ( )
