Bookroo's summary

Julius Caesar's latest scheme to conquer the Gauls involves Caius Preposterus, an economics whiz, who introduces big business to their village. As Obelix's menhir trade booms, the Gauls face a new challenge: the seductive power of wealth. But when the market crashes, will prosperity turn to peril? Can the Gauls maintain their spirit, or will Caesar's plan succeed in dividing them? Discover the fate of the indomitable Gauls as they navigate the treacherous waters of commerce and ambition.

From the publisher

Julius Caesar sends Caius Preposterus, a bright young graduate of the Latin school of Economics, to corrupt the indomitable Gauls by introducing them to big business. Obelix’s menhir trade is soon thriving, backed by a heavy advertising campaign - but does wealth bring happiness? And what will happen when the bottom falls out of the menhir market?
