In Teutates' Name... a new Asterix audio play! The adventures of Asterix, created by René Goscinny and Albert Uderzo, are among the most popular and successful comics of all time. The witty tales of the small, cunning warrior are also available as an audio play. Exciting stories from a time when - almost! - all of Gaul was occupied by the Romans. Episode 39: Asterix and the Griffin. At Caesar's command, a Roman legion ventures into the land of the Sarmatians. Here, far east of Rome, they are to capture the griffin for the emperor's circus games. However, the legendary creature, a cross between an eagle and a lion, is a sacred being for the Sarmatians. Therefore, their druid Terrine made telepathic contact with Miraculix and requested help against the advancing Romans. It’s only natural that Asterix and Obelix accompany their friend into the icy Sarmatian steppe. Duration: approx. 60 minutes. Recommended for ages 5 and up.
