Marco Polo and the Sleeping Beauty is a historical fantasy novel co-authored by Avram Davidson and Grania Davis, first published in 1988. Set during the 13th century, the story follows Marco Polo and his family-his father Niccolò and his uncle Maffeo-who, after a decade in the service of Kublai Khan, seek permission to return to Venice. The aging Khan agrees, but on the condition that they undertake one final mission: to deliver a mysterious gift to a distant land. This quest leads them into a realm where myth and reality intertwine, encountering enchantments reminiscent of the Sleeping Beauty legend.
