Wieczorek, Harald Jakob, der stumme Krieger

Jakob, a foundling, was raised in a monastery, taken away at a young age by robbers after they raided the monastery. From then on he had to live with the robbers until they were captured and hanged. The lord of the manor let him live with the obligation to work for him. Jacob fell in love with a maid, was punished severely and killed the lord of the manor in self-defence. To escape his pursuers, Jakob joined Tilly's army as a mercenary. In the last battle, at the end of the war, he lost his voice through a sword blow to the head. After the war, Jakob found work on a farm and befriended Max, the farmer's twelve-year-old son. When Max was kidnapped by jugglers, Jakob set off in pursuit of the jugglers after bringing in the harvest ... Many scenes in this book are harsh and brutal. They reflect the time during and after the 30-year war. As a result, the human attributes such as love, friendship, loyalty, faith, hope come to the fore.
