Matrophage Durakti: The Sterile Matron: (Book 1 in the Matrophage Durakti Saga In "Echoes of Bhu" Universe)

By Ashwin Chitransh

She is the girl who destroys universes. She is the woman who has already destroyed them. She is the Matron whose grief consumes galaxies.
What if the only way to save humanity required the systematic destruction of everything she loves?
In 2025 Delhi, Surakti is an ordinary 21-year-old navigating college, family dinners, and the quiet ache of unspoken love. But across three parallel universes and timelines, she is becoming something far more dangerous-Durakti, The Sterile Matron-a being whose despair is so absolute that it compels others toward their own annihilation.
Caught in the convergence of three timelines, Surakti discovers that ancient cosmic empires have identified her as the pivot point upon which galactic fate turns. The Sura and Asura powers remain locked in a billion-year conflict, and she is their calculated solution. In 1542, a mysterious woman destroys entire fleets through the raw transmission of despair. In 3025, a devastated Earth echoes with apocalyptic warfare commanded by a Matron whose children shed their humanity like skin. In 2025, an ordinary girl in an ordinary bedroom remains unaware of the cosmic machinery remaking her very nature.
The war for the galaxy's soul has already begun. It will not wait for her permission.
