"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."

Notă biografică
Jonathan Fisher is a true survivor. He is the author of August Always, his memoir and the critically acclaimed Ten Minutes on Mars. August Always was cited by The Belfast Telegraph as 'a triumph'. The book itself took the author 17 years to write; a testament to Jonathan's endurance. In April 1992, age 22, he died - albeit briefly - from an undiagnosed Addisonian Crisis. Before then, Jonathan had a full childhood and subsequent teenage troubles. Thanks to his parents' intervention, he was rushed to the local hospital wherein Jonathan was comatose for three months. The doctors said it would be a mercy to turn off Jonathan's life support machines. Against all odds, Fisher moved his little finger to his mother's voice, proof of a semblance of life.
Later that year, Jonathan began the long, slow, hard road to recovery. A journey that would take him through many institutions and heartaches, spending time in the forge and on the anvil. A refining process that reshaped the author, both mentally and physically.
His second book Ten Minutes on Mars was nominated for the James Tait Black Prize for literature in 2018.
Jonathan Fisher, the author, remains a wheel-chair user, fiercely independent and he does not let his physical disability stop him from achieving his goals. He is a keen costume player and a member of the Emerald Garrison and Heroes Unite Ireland, professional costuming clubs who dress up as super heroes and Star Wars characters to support worthy causes.
Come to the stellar, paranormal, majestic, thrilling science fiction and fantasy worlds created by Jonathan Fisher.
