Gaul was divided into three parts. No, four parts—for one small village of indomitable Gauls still held out against the Roman invaders.

Asterix in Spain is the 14th book in the series. When the Romans take Chief Huevos y Bacon's son hostage, they get more than they bargained for. Little Pepe proves a terrible handful. Asterix and Obelix rescue him and set out to return him to his father.
