A new, definitive translation of the quintessential Korean classic: the Robin Hood story of a magical boy who joins a group of robber bandits and becomes a king *Selected as a Best Book of the Year by NPR and The Washington Post*The Story of Hong Gildong is arguably the single most important work of classic Korean fiction. A fantastic story of adventure, it has been adapted into countless movies, television shows, novels, and comics in Korea. Until now, the earliest and fullest text of this incredible fable has been inaccessible to English readers. Hong Gildong, the brilliant but illegitimate son of a noble government minister, cannot advance in society due to his second-class status, so he leaves home and becomes the leader of a band of outlaws. On the way to building his own empire and gaining acceptance from his family, Hong Gildong vanquishes assassins, battles monsters, and conquers kingdoms. Minsoo Kang's expressive and lively new translation finally makes the authoritative text of this premodern tale available in English, reintroducing a noble and righteous outlaw and sharing a beloved hallmark of Korean culture. "Hong Gildong is an iconic figure in the Korean literary canon...He's the mythic center of a sometimes-delightful, sometimes-unsettling tale, and it's time the Western world gets to know him." --NPR " A] marvel-filled swashbuckler...Besides being half fairy tale, half social protest novel, The Story of Hong Gildong possesses a profound resonance for modern Koreans." --Michael Dirda, The Washington Post For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines.

A Good Offering From V8
Flavor Name: Peach Mango, Size: Pack of 6 (8 Fl Oz)
It's no secret that I'm a fan of the V8 energy drinks. This is a six-pack of 8-fluid ounce cans of V8 energy in the flavor duo of peach and mango. Out of all the V8 energy drinks, it's probably my second favorite behind orange/pineapple. It's easy to find and can also be found in a 12-pack on occasion.
V8 falls under the Campbell's brand. There are 80mg of caffeine in each can of V8 energy. This is about equal to most cups of coffee. I've found when I drink one can to get started in the morning that I have a nice energy boost that allows me to get my morning routine going.
The temptation I have to resist is to have too many of these. The cans are smaller and they have such a deceptive, smooth taste that it's easy to forget that you're actually getting a fair amount of caffeine. Too much caffeine is definitely not great and I find it really messes with my digestive system. So, this is definitely a drink I enjoy in moderation.
The peach and mango duo has a nice balance to it. It lacks the spark of the orange/pineapple, however, it tastes substantial and I always feel like I'm getting a solid drink when I have one of these.
V8 Energy has definitely gone up in price during the pandemic and some of the flavors can be hard to track down, however, I pretty consistently see peach/mango. While the price has gone up, it's still less expensive than nearly anything in the energy drink category except for the cheap stuff that isn't at all healthy.
This energy boost comes from green tea and it's just a smoother energy boost without all the jitters and without a sugar crash.
There are 50 calories in each can and each can actually counts as one serving of fruits and veggies.
Overall, I'm a definite van of the V8 energy brand and Peach/Mango is my second favorite flavor duo. I get the boost I need, however, it's healthier and more evenly spread out without giving me the caffeine crash that I hate. While I have to drink these in moderation, when I need an energy boost the first place I'm going to look is at these V8 energy drinks.

Hands down best drink ever!
Flavor Name: Peach Mango, Size: Pack of 12 (8 Fl Oz)
The Peach Mango V8 is genuinely one of my favorite drinks ever. I honestly love these more than coffee or any caffeine drink I get from drive-thrus. I’m not a huge fan of carbonated drinks, so this is absolutely perfect for me. I’m actually the type of person who lets pop go flat before drinking it (yes, I know that’s weird 😂), so having something flavorful without carbonation is amazing.
It has the same fruity, energy-drink type flavor that drinks like Bubblr or Alani have, just without the sparkling part. The peach mango flavor is so good and refreshing, and I always keep these stocked at home.
