Krabat is a classic and my childhood book. My father used to read it to me and reading it now again on my own made me nostalgic.
The story is simple but so dark and I like the old German way of writing. It had me hooked. I just wished the ending would have been more descriptive and with a little more tension.
Overall a captivating classic- read it!
