Patterns of Power: Wolves, Lambs, and Algorithms

By A. I. Freeman

Patterns of Power: Wolves, Lambs, and Algorithms

The wolf takes. The lamb pleads. The outcome is inevitable... or is it?

In this gripping collection of 23 speculative fiction stories, power is not what it seems. From haunted wells and cursed battlegrounds to collapsing worlds and alien ruins, systems of control bend, break, and betray-but so do those who challenge them. Inspired by Aesop's The Wolf and the Lamb, these tales weave science fiction, fantasy, and horror into a tapestry of resistance, fate, and the hidden patterns that shape our existence.

A dying planet where hunger itself devours civilizationA battlefield of curses, where healing may be the greatest dangerA song that traps souls, calling them into the abyssA structure buried beneath the ice, pulsing with a forgotten messageA machine that governs lives, leaving no room for escape

From the ruins of distant worlds to the myths of ancient kings, Patterns of Power dares to ask: Who decides the rules of survival? And what happens when the powerless refuse to play by them?

For readers who love speculative fiction that challenges authority, twists logic, and explores the eerie and unknown, this collection is an invitation-to question, to defy, and to discover.
