Editor's Review ★★★★

AudioBook Atlas

As a parent and an audiobook enthusiast, I was pleasantly surprised by 'Marco Polo'. The dual narration is a stroke of genius, allowing listeners to truly understand the dynamic between Marco and Niccolò. Frances Jeater's warm, expressive voice brings Marco's wonder and curiosity to life, while Sam Dastor's rich, resonant tone lends gravitas to Niccolò's wisdom. Kerry Shale's asides are a delightful bonus, providing just the right amount of levity. My only critique is that the pacing feels slightly rushed in places, but this is a minor quibble in an otherwise excellent production. It's a fantastic way to introduce children to history, and I'd highly recommend it.
