Hello there, welcome to Alpha Guard!
Below the concept cover is a quick rundown of what’s what…
My name is Samuel George London and I’m a writer from Hampshire in the UK. Usually, I write comic books, but this is my first novel. And just so my fellow Brits know, I’m writing in American-English because the main character himself is originally from the US.
Alpha Guard is a sci-fi thriller novel, most easily described as Jack Reacher in space, but the short synopsis is as follows:
Even after 300-years of colonization, Mars is still a tough place to live - unless you can afford to live in Dome One. However, when the wealthy need to visit out-of-dome, they hire bodyguards known as ‘bugs’ to protect them. Alpha Guard is the best bug on the Red Planet, and when he's hired to escort a VIP around Mars, his skills are tested to the absolute limit.
So, in a nutshell, if you like books by Lee Child, Andy Weir, Mark Greaney and Blake Crouch you will (probably) enjoy reading or listening to this story.
Throughout 2024, I’ll be publishing Alpha Guard on a monthly basis, chapter by chapter, right here for free. So, please be sure to subscribe to stay notified when new chapters are posted.
I’ll never put a paywall on chapter posts, but if you’d like to, there is an opportunity to upgrade to paid. However, it’s only to fuel my caffeine habit. So, please only part with your hard earned cash, if you can afford it.
There are audio versions of posts available, but to give you a heads up, the chapter reading is by an AI voiceover. However, when I eventually publish Alpha Guard as a polished novel, I will be hiring a human to read the audiobook.
If you'd like to follow me on social media, you can on Instagram, TikTok and X (Formerly Twitter). Whether or not you’re on social media, please consider sharing Alpha Guard with anyone you think would be interested.

Happy reading and please let me know what you think in the comments.
Ciao for now,
SGL
