Adam Browne returns to the 7 book series formerly called Distant Destinies, and published by Author House in 2008 till 2014. The first book was the only one published. Since then, it seemed that the title was confused for a rock album, Distant Desnty, no relation, and a lackluster video game series, Destiny, also not related.
Using the alien name of the cousin race in the story will change the title for the seven books, but subtitles will be from the unpublished books.
The first story is considerably different from the 2008 version, but is similar. It has a lot of characters, setting and story from the first.

Name Change to Avoid Confusion Reveals Why Story Has Taken So Long
Browne Press and Starship Locations has finally disclosed a main reason why there has been no sign of a reprint of Distant Destinies in 2018, thus far. Brand confusion.
From the original title, which wasn't original, in 1984, Space The Final Frontier, (obviously from Star Trek)...
To Plantcom, 1984 title, the story of space flight, rebranded in 1986...
To Planetcom, or Planet Com, in 1986, which shortly later had problems, due to Rendesvous with Rama calling their version of the Internet that, Planet com, should for planet communications. In 1986, Adam had not yet read Rama).
To Distant Cousins in 1992, which within a year was confused for a horror movie, Distant Cousins, and also it sounds like a soap opera.
To Distant Planets, which sounds a little like a Cosmos rip off.
To Distant Journeys, which also was like a spiritual walk thing in 1997.
On to Distant Destinies, 2008, which sounds like, Distant Desinty, a musical album, 2011, having nothing to do with this, to the awful space video game, Destiny and Destiny 2, 2016, 2018.
They are even confusing the author, Adam Browne, with another two authors, one of which wrote fantasy, about dragons, and another, historic fables about Quixote!
Several of the alien names were also changed over the years.
They might use the alien name in the title of each.
This is to be announced.
A title alteration is actually the last step. The stories are finished. Then they would look for self publishers.
