Asterix in Switzerland

asterixbook16

Volume 16

In Asterix in Switzerland, Quaestor Vexatius Sinusitus, a Treasurer, is sent to Condatum (Rennes) by Caesar to investigate and audit the governor of Gaul known for his "creative" accounting. In turn, the governor has him poisened.

Getafix can prepare an antidote but he needs a special ingredient, a flower known as the Silver Star which blooms only in Helvetia. He sends Asterix and Obelix off to Switzerland to procure this flower.

The governor sends word to his equally crooked friend, the governor of Genava (Geneva) to do whatever it takes to stop our heroes.
