Description:
|
The main idea behind the album is the fear that the Normans from the north have come to learn from the Gauls. The key to the adventure is that Cacofonix's hip music is only enjoyed by Justforkix. This was highly appreciated by pop music fans in the sixties.
This album marks the beginning of a great career for Justforkix, who then went on to play the lead role in a series of gamebooks called Alea Jacta Est, and which are collector's items today.
Note that for once the Romans are not the villains. Rather, they make a pitiful sight being torn between the Gauls and the Normans. The adventure differs from others on several accounts, including the fact that Cacofonix the bard is given permission to attend the final banquet.
