(4) 4-6 Sixteen-year-old Marco Polo travels to the Unknown Lands to save his father from a rogue magician. Mythical creatures and close shaves abound as the budding explorer and his companions close in on the diabolical mage. Lack of historical authenticity, along with Marco's childish behavior, mars this otherwise acceptable, if unremarkable, fantasy.
