Sur les quais de Venise qui bordent la lagune, le dernier rejeton des Polo n'en finit plus de chercher l'aventure. Les gamins des rues ont su saper un à un ses rudiments de discipline. De cette enfance débridée, scandaleuse, il se fera une ligne de conduite. Ligne fuyante et tapageuse qui le mènera bien loin de la cité des Doges - de Bagdad à la Chine du grand Khan, en passant par Saint-Jean-d'Acre et le désert du Grand Salé, entre pillards, prostituées, esclaves et princes divers... Un long voyage jusqu'aux confins du inonde que Polo, égal à lui-même, vit le mors aux dents, jamais rassasié de plaisirs, de richesses et d'horizons...
