Flying monkeys. The very phrase stirs unease—half whimsical, half menacing. Popular culture has dressed them in wings and mischief, but in truth, the concept runs far deeper than mere fantasy. “Flying monkeys” are not just creatures of storybooks or villains’ sidekicks; they are patterns of behaviour, roles people play, and forces of influence that can quietly erode the fabric of our lives. This book is not about mythical beasts—it is about real dynamics of manipulation, loyalty, and destruction. Flying monkeys are those who, knowingly or unknowingly, carry out the bidding of someone else, often to devastating effect. They may appear as friends, allies, or concerned parties, but behind their words and actions lies an agenda not their own.
