One of Neil Gaiman's favourite scary stories for children. Set
within a world of sorcery and wizardry, much like an 18th Century
Harry Potter, Krabat tells the story of a 14-year-old beggar boy
lured to a mysterious mill by a series of frightening dreams and
apparitions. He becomes an apprentice to the master of the
watermill where he joins the eleven other young journeymen who work
there. Much to his surprise Krabat soon discovers that the mill is
actually a school of black magic and he is expected to learn much
more than just a normal miller's trade. Krabat studies hard and
becomes the master's star pupil, but when he falls for a local
village girl the depth of the masters evil and the darker secrets
of the mill begin to reveal themselves. One by one his fellow
classmates perish from mysterious, unexplained accidents and Krabat
realises he must use all of the dark magic skills he has learned to
secure his escape. Now a major motion picture starring David Kross
(The Reader, War Horse).
