Critic reviews
“A fascinating and impressive collection of science fiction short stories…there’s a remarkable symmetry between the (cover) art and science fiction in the prose and helped transport us into an adventure we will surely cherish—the stories are beautifully written, heartfelt, well-paced and I’m in awe of its ambience.” (Pat Mills, creator of 2000AD and Spacewarp)

Perfect collection of short, unexpected stories
I picked up my copy of “Where The Stars Be Still As Bright” in Waterstones after reading much about our local author. The book was proudly perched on the top shelf in the Science Fiction section. This is the first novel that I have read by Jonathan Fisher; I will now be making my way through all his publications!
This book is a collection of unexpected, out of this world(!), short stories that are quick and fun to read. Jonathan’s style of writing really pulls you into the story and you feel like you are completely immersed in the world he has created on paper. After a long day at work, I loved nothing more than starting a new story and transporting myself into a different world.
The collection of stories are completely unpredictable; you just do not know what world you are about to be transported into next! We journey to a world where the zodiac has changed in “The Astrologer” to a world of horror (in my favourite story!) to “The Chiropodist” (where those little piggies probably should have stayed at home!) to the dying planet Earth where “The President’s Soul Is Missing”. There really is something for everyone!
Jonathan’s stories have really stayed in my head. These short stories are a perfect read for traveling on public transport, reading in a waiting room or for a quick “goodnight” story. I also purchased this book on Audible so that I could listen to the stories while washing the dishes, doing the ironing and traveling in the car. The narrator was brilliant! A deep and mysterious (slightly sinister!) voice that further immersed you into the storyline. I always recommend Audible to anyone who doesn’t have a minute to sit down and read.
