Marco Polo: John Lucarotti

Doctor Who Original Adventures No 94. The young Venetian Marco Polo is on his way to the Emperor's Court in Peking when he meets the intrepid time-travellers, for the TARDIS has landed on earth in the year 1289. Marco Polo recognises the TARDIS as a means of winning favour with the Emperor. But in the end the Doctor has no-one but himself to blame when he gambles away his wondrous travelling machine to Kublai Khan. Cover art by David McAllister.
