Asterix audiobooks

A few years ago I purchased three tapes with stories of Asterix on them. I had forgotten however that I don’t own a cassette-player anymore. A few weeks ago a friend of mine told me he had bought an old cassettedeck to convert some old tapes. He was so friendly to convert my Asterix tapes as well.

The tapes are in Dutch and there is one tape for each album. The albums are:

  • De Odyssee van Asterix (En. Asterix and the Black Gold)
  • De Zoon van Asterix (Asterix and Son)
  • Asterix in Indus-land (Asterix and the Magic Carpet)

These tapes were published by Albert René in 1988 and you’d get the book with the tape.

I know that around the same time more audiobooks have been published in Dutch and German. Asterix in Belgium and Asterix and the Great Divide are on that list for sure. There are of course audiobooks in other languages, most notably French, as well, but this series seems to be part of one project. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were tapes in French as well.

For the visitors from Belgium and the Netherlands I have uploaded mp3-files of the tapes.

Do you have any Asterix audiobooks or tapes? Tell me about it in the comments below.
