The Crab With The Golden Claws : Herge: desertcart.in: Books Review: A True Adventure in Sense!! - Le Crabe aux pinces d'or tells the adventure of young Belgian reporter Tintin and his dog Snowy, who travels to Morocco to pursue a gang of international opium dealers. This story introduces the emotional, bumbling hot-headed pipe smoking Marine, Captain Haddock famous for his colourful vocabulary and a penchant for rum and whiskey. Though an exhilarating tale, but couldn't help noticing the similarities with Hergé's earlier Tintin adventure 'Cigars of the Pharoah' - both featuring the smuggling of opium in crab tins and cigars respectively and desert treks, hostile tribes and at the end, the infiltration of a secret underground liar. The cream on top being the recurring character of Allan( he plays a major role in the later) Review: Good for ages 12 to 16 - I bought it for my brother. He said the story was interesting

Excellent book with hard and glossy pages.
This book is excellent with hard and glossy pages. The coloured pictures are very bright. The writings are big enough to be seen. The story is excellent too.

album BD anglophone broché souple grand format ancien (1974/1953/1939) traduction du Crabe aux pinces d'or; cette neuvième aventure des célèbres héros d'Hergé fait partie des oeuvres d'avant-guerre (les automobiles et avions sont datées de cette époque) à part Tintin, Milou, les Dupondt et leurs chutes, le personnage principal qui fait son apparition est le capitaine Haddock, marin alcoolique notoire, manipulé par une bande de méchants trafiquants; par ailleurs l'intrigue nous fait voyager au Moyen-orient et les populations arabes sont traitées de manière un peu condescendante qui laisse affleurer l'esprit colonial de l'époque (qui ne passe plus de nos jours); sa lecture en anglais est grandement aidée par le dessin, il faut seulement s'habituer aux jurons du capitaine Haddock; la plupart des personnages ont le même nom que dans la version d'origine; dans cette édition Little Brown souple, le papier est robuste et il ne manque que la couverture rigide pour compléter votre collection mais cette version sera parfaite à bas prix en attendant
