Tales of the Acheron is a four-book series published between 2017 and 2020, centered on the crew of the spacecraft Acheron. The series started with Prodigal (2017) and expanded with The Acheron, Hybrid, and Exile in 2020, fleshing out the world introduced in the related standalone novel Last Flight of the Acheron.

The series offers a more character-focused story than some of Partlow’s purely military work, with the ship’s crew driving the narrative through the dangers they encounter in deep space.
