Reception Dave Langford reviewed ''The Sun Shines Bright'' for ''White Dwarf'' #44, and stated that "Each essay presents some interesting insight or viewpoint, usually scientific; most of them, alas, are padded and smothered with great wads of facts, statistics and numbers in general, the result being relatively dull."
