The Star Trek: Voyager Companion is a reference book that takes a detailed look into the series and its episodes.
Description[]
- From the book jacket
- Over thirty-five years ago, creating a television series about a group of explorers making their way across the unexplored reaches of space was a gamble for a small studio. For the network that bought the show, it proved to be an even greater gamble, and after three season with "disapointinng ratings" they cancelled Star Trek.
- In the subsequent decades, a great deal changed. By 1995, Star Trek and its two successors, Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, had changed the face of syndication across the country. Now as the studio and its parent company, Viacom, looked to launch their own network, a new Star Trek series would easily become the cornerstone of the new enterprise.
- In creating Star Trek: Voyager, Executive Producers Rick Berman, Michael Piller, and Jeri Taylor embraced Star Trek's original theme of "exploring strange new worlds and new civilizations," then took it a step further by stranding their crew in the farthest reaches of the Delta Quadrant, totally cut off from all that was familiar. It was a bold step, one that forced both the starship's crew and the show itself to stand on its own, its success determined by its own resourcefulness.
- For seven years, Captain Kathryn Janeway and the crew of the aptly name Starship Voyager lived with one goal-to get home-and strove to live up to the ideals of Starfleet as they travelded alone in a tumultuous region of space. Relive their epic journey through summaries, photos, and detailed episode data in this official companion to Star Trek: Voyager, the series that proved once again the power of Star Trek.
