(4) YA Emmajin, unconventional (fictional) granddaughter of Kublai Kahn, plans never to marry and instead join the Mongolian army. Her first assignment brings her close to trader Marco Polo; little does she expect that this imaginative explorer will cause her to examine her values, her goals, and her heart. Though it's a bit overwrought, Emmajin's story is dynamic and well plotted.
