Ahh, "The Wounded Sky!" One of the better Star Trek books I've read. Parades are nice. Flash forwards WOULD be kinda anti-climatic. And ... stupid. But, how are they going to traverse the final 25,000 ly or whatever in five episodes? Are we going to get a wormhole or something? Are they even getting home? I haven't read any of the rumors.

Apparently, from what I gather, the story goes that they don't reach Earth for another 20 years... so the ship's only been home for a few (weeks/months?) in the flashforward.

That's kind of what I'm picturing, assuming the flash forward idea is even true.
My guess is we'll alternate between two time frames. The "flash forward" one where Voyager has been home for some time and whatever is going to happen then, is happening. And the "current" one which will end with Voyager continuing on her way home.
According to that theory, the series would end without her ever reaching Earth, but we'd know that she will eventually. That's only my guess though. I'm not basing it on anything.

I didn't say I approved of such an ending...I simply said that's what I'm expecting

Didn't mean to sound as though I were criticizing you, Aban. Just, oh, God. That would be horrible. Please let the ruler of the universe not be THAT sadistic.

She's a vegetarian too. So there's no reasoning with her.

Conundrum, since you have missed out on the 7th season of Voyager there will be spoilers for you in this post in response to your post. (Might be spoilers for other people as well, so be warned) $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $
A court-marshal for everone is a possibility, but you've got a crew of appoximately 150 to deal with. If they do press forward with one, Janeway will most likely get the brunt of accusations. Charges could also get dropped and I believe none would get sent to prison. Knowing the rumours for ST:X, this seems likely as Janeway will appear as an officer...an admiral no less. It seems she gets a promotion. So they don't go forward with the court-marshals. There will be some information marked as Top Secret, but since Voyager had made real-time contact with Starfleet, a lot of information has already been spread through the Federation. As for the Doc, as the final episode suggests, he will not get thrown into the junk pile. He will either remain as Voyager's CMO or get a transfer to Starfleet Medical. The only upgrading he'll get is probably a change in uniform and commbadge.
