Klaus is Co-author of 

Die Basic Fibel (with Hans Breuer)
BI-Wissenschaftsverlag, Mannheim, Germany, 1986

Klaus was born on 23 April 1968 in Saskatoon, Canada, where his father, Hans Breuer , was professor of Physics at the University of Saskatchewan.
When he was three and half years old (his brother Hannes two years younger) his parents fulfilled their dream of buying a sailing yacht. For the next five years the family lived on board Kajen .
They sailed from Portugal via Spain and Gibraltar into the Mediterranean and to Morocco, Canary Islands, down the Westcoast of Africa to Dakar, Senegal, and Gambia, crossing the Atlantic from Dakar to Martinique and the lesser Antilles, staying everywhere for quite long periods.
The first kindergarten and school Klaus attended were in Grand Canary and Teneriffe. Most of the time he had private tuition from his mother. He also learned many poems and is still fond of poetry. At hardly six he read his first novel, by Enid Blyton (he could not wait for the nightly reading hour) and never stopped devouring books.
In 1976 the family moved to Germany and Austria and in 1981 they immigrated from Germany to South Africa: Stellenbosch.
At the age of 15 Klaus was bitten by the computer bug. A year later he helped his father write a text book on a computer language (Basic).
He matriculated from Paul Roos Gymnasium in 1985. He studied Physics, Geography and Computer Sciences at the Universities of Stellenbosch, Berlin and Erlangen (BSc. in Computer Science and Geography), Germany.
Klaus lived for a year in California. He is now working as a programmer in Munich, Germany, which - both town and work - he enjoys very much.
Klaus and Susanne are the the proud parents of Ronja, born in April 2006.
