Amazon.co.uk Review
For many fans, Voyager hit its peak in the fourth season, due in no small part to a certain former Borg drone named Seven of Nine, Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix 0-1, but you can call her Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan). Following the season 3 cliffhanger "Scorpion," the crew enters an unlikely alliance with the Borg against Species 8472, led by Seven of Nine, who ends up restoring (mostly) her human roots and trying to assimilate herself among Voyager's crew all the time feeling the pull of the Collective and resisting the mother-hen attempts of Captain Janeway (Kate Mulgrew). While Seven's curvaceous figure and skin-tight uniform certainly won over many fans, she was helped by a commanding presence, good writing ("So you wish to copulate?" was a classic line), and a stage that was cleared for her by the coinciding departure of one of the most prominent characters of the series.

Other significant developments of the season included the actors' getting to stretch themselves out "Mirror, Mirror"-like as evil counterparts in "Living Witness" (also Tim Russ's directing debut), the time- and mind-bending two-parter "Year of Hell," a battle with 1940s Nazis in the two-part "The Killing Game," the Doctor's comedic sparring with a new rival in "Message in a Bottle," the Alien-like "Prey," and Tom Paris (Robert Duncan MacNeill) taking a personal step and switching bodies with an alien in "Vis a Vis."--David Horiuchi

Synopsis
Another spin-off of the Star Trek series, Star Trek: Voyager centers on the Federation starship USS Voyager as its crew bands together with a group of Maquis rebels to return home from the far-flung Delta Quadrant. Starring Kate Mulgrew as the Voyager's captain Kathryn Janeway and Robert Duncan McNeill as the spaceship's pilot Tom Paris, the series' cast is rounded out by Robert Beltran as Maquis commander Chakotay, Tim Russ as Vulcan security officer Tuvok, Garrett Wang as navigator Harry Kim, Robert Picardo as the hologram Doctor, and Roxann Dawson and Ethan Phillips as alien crew members B.L.T. and Neelix. This 7-volume collection includes all 26 episodes from the series' fourth season, which bids adieu to cast member Jennifer Lien and introduces Jeri Ryan as sexy Borg Seven of Nine.

Season 4 - Resitance is Futile!
As Season Three of Star Trek: Voyager neared its conclusion the show really hit its stride. And Season Four just got better. Starting with the second part of Scorpion (which introduced Jerry Ryan as Seven of Nine) almost every story is a cracker. The lost of Kes was unfortunate (losing the irritating Neelix would have been a better option!), but gaining Seven of Nine, later to be know Seven, was a masterstroke. Although maybe too many of the later stories revolved around her - but then she is a great character. There are a couple of great two-parters: The Year of Hell and The Killing Game (which features the Hirogen, who featured in an earlier story in the season).
The actors all know their characters inside and out and have become comfortable with the set up. Kate Mulgrew makes a formidable (and, at times, quite sexy) captain who sparks off of Seven quite fequently. Quite possibly the most completely satisfying Season in Voyagers seven years, with strong stories, great effects and good writing and acting. There are some quite good extras, not over burdend with them, but then there are seven seasons to fill - and there are several 'easter eggs' dotted about (on all seasons).

Voyager's Forth Season
Star Trek Voyager is a science fiction television show that followed a federation star ship know as Voyager. The ship and her crew are stranded alone on the other side of the galaxy. To get home they face the prospect of spending decades crossing hostile space.

This is the forth out of seven seasons of Star Trek Voyager that were produced, and for many people this is the season where things really picked up for the show. This boxed set features all twenty six episodes that were originally broadcast between September 1997 and May 1998.

Season three and it's cliff hanger was always going to be a difficult season to improve on, but the forth season manages it well and every improves in several aspects.

The most significant highlight of this season is the introduction of a new crew member in the form of Seven Of Nine (played by Jeri Ryan.) However other highlights include a near warp core beech, the gripping two part "Year Of Hell," a crew member returning from the dead, the introduction of the Hirogen, and the Omega Molecule. Standards through out the season are very high, and some episodes such as "Message in a Bottle" "One," and the series final "Hope and Fear" are nothing less than brilliant.

What was refreshing about the introduction of Seven Of Nine was the fact that her transformation from Borg drone to an individual human was not quick and easy, and in fact would span a number of episodes. I also liked a lot of the concepts raised in the series, many ideas are very philosophical and involving.

The cast have now become very comfortable in their roles, and because of this their acting seems very natural. Some great special effects, are a welcome edition to the series, while not being over the top they have been well implemented.

There's not a single weak episode in the entire season, and it's entertainment value is very high.

BEST STAR TREK SERIES BY A MILE
EXCELLENT SEASON WITH THE ADDITION OF SEVEN OF NINE IN IT(EX-BORG DRONE).VOYAGER HAS MORE DEPTH IN IT THAN ANY OTHER STAR TREK SERIES AND WITH JANEWAY AS CAPTAIN IT WORKS WELL.
