Jacob the silent warrior
by Harald Wieczorek
Description
JAKOB, a foundling, was raised in a monastery, taken away at a young age by robbers after they had raided the monastery. From then on he had to live with the robbers until they were captured and hanged. The landlord let him live with the obligation to work for him. Jacob fell in love with a maid, forbidden by law, was punished severely and killed the lord of the manor in self-defense. To escape the persecutors, Jakob joined Tilly's army as a mercenary. In the last battle, end of the war, he lost his voice by a sword blow to the head. After the war, Jacob found work on a farm and became friends with Max, the farmer's twelve-year-old son. When Max was kidnapped by jugglers, Jacob, after he had brought in the harvest, went in pursuit of the jugglers ...
Many scenes in this book are hard and brutal. They reflect the time during and after the 30-year war. This makes the human attributes such as love, friendship, loyalty, faith and hope stand out.
