The novel is the seventh creation of admiring story writer Magnus
Mills, a person who has an appreciative personality with the admiring
portrayals in the form of inspirational stories. He is the man who can convince
the readers to its writings. The novel “A cruel bird came to the nest and
looked In” is a story of a fantasy Royal land. The land which is similar to our
land in which we live. That was falling into pieces and waiting for the young
emperor who was abroad for the purpose of studying and used to communicate
through the penny post.
The people of the Royal land were all waiting for the young
emperor, to make state run and work. Because there was an enemy who building
their railway towards the Royal land to attack and get them under their regime.
The story is an inspirational write up by explaining the history of past 250
years, the way things used to happen there. But the story line is not serious
neither boring. Everything is presented in a great comical way. The economic
activities, the way people used to manage their livings while the leader emperor
is away to pass the commands for the execution.
