It is well known that the signature of a \(4\)-manifold fibered over a sphere or a torus must vanish. The authors construct examples of \(4\)-manifolds fibered over a surface of genus \(2\) which have nonzero signature. These examples are constructed as cyclic branched covers of a product of Riemann surfaces.
