One of the really early Asterix stories (from 1964), where Asterix and Obelisk head off to Rome to rescue Cacofonix the bard, who has been captured by the Romans stationed around the village, and taken in chains to Rome to be presented to Caesar/fed to the Circus.

I've also only just discovered that this is the first book in the series in which Obelisk says "These Romans are crazy!"

I wanted more romance.

I didn't enjoy this quite as much as the first one. I wanted more Mack and Corrigan time but it was still pretty good. I wanted more tension, more flirting, more...romance. Nevertheless, I will be buying book 3 as soon as this review is posted to continue this series and I'm really hoping that the training won't be taking five years because that's a loooong time.

I haven't read all of the Night Hunters series, three or four books but it was nice to see Cat and Bones in this. But I have to admit that I loved this book. I think it was mainly Vlad but Leila was kick arse herself and together they were pretty awesome. The storyline was intriguing and I can't wait to read the next one to see what happens next.
