This is my favorite work of German science fiction, happy to see it mentioned here. Warning, the Wikipedia page contains major spoilers (as usual). The page mentions "Quest" as a prequel, which it technically is, though really it's better thought of as a different story in the same universe. The more recently released "Eines Menschen Flügel" (roughly: Wings of a Human) of the author is also set in that universe.
