Penguin Group, Viking Press Reviews

Incredible books published by Penguin Group are part of the book collection at P (lending) library.

This is a historic landscape and it's awesome when visiting the floors. You can see the amazing children's books. I love walking around the floor and checking out the process in how these classic books are developed.

Well, where to start? I know of the books that this company has been associated with that has spurred my interest, just as I know the books of Simon and Schuster, HarperCollins and other publishers and author's which I find to suit my balance as well. You see I am a writer and have been for what I believe the entirety of my soul's existance. I believe that it has been written into me before date of my own conception. Don't ask me why, because the answer of my feeling that way would only bore you. I am first and foremost a Texas rancher. I have spent my totality under that lifestyle as well. It was my birthright, not chosen, yet would not trade it for any other way. A rancher who spends his whole life punching cows and the rest of his whole life applying words to the written page. I am not young, but I am neither considered old either, but my day will come when all of you will see it before I do, I am sure. My name is Roger Browning. Yes remember it. I will fight to know that I have impressed that at least in my efforts. I write every day and have since I was a child. I believe that it has brought me to at least forty eight years of my life and several hundred unpublished novels, never shown to anyone. I kept it that way until a small publisher from Washington state traveled down to my ranch, to believe it or not, hunt the wild hog in our controlling and to put it's tasty meat upon his table. By chance he read over 'a novel,' that I was writing at the time. Set upon my work trucks dash, already written pages of each spiral notebook that I had previously filled with my scratchings. It was unfinished, and he studied it with great interest and asked for its finish. So I obliged. I wrote him three more novels in two months just to show that I could and give him a choice of genres he might feel, as much as I feel them when I write. He published the first and after proofing them out to a small audience, he is publishing the other three. The first published novel is titled, 'The Reckoning of Rance' and is out on Amazon now, for your searching. It is a story of a dysfunctional modern day ranching family. A dysfunction, moreover that you might already know, or have witnessed before. A dysfunction by inheritance and want. It's setting is as relatable to sometimes life's picture and could have been just as easily set to that under the same burdens of any that lives the Manhattan high rise. I am writing this on this review site for one reason, and that is to challenge any publisher to pick up a copy and read it. Tell me it's lousy or tell me it's great. I can take it. Deal it out. Then once you discover which, then find me and then I can decide if what the ones who are reading it and loving it, should have done so in the first place. Your group house's great authors and deep down I would like to be one of them. I cannot lie, I always have. It is the writers dream after all. I was born just twenty miles from Larry McMurtry and run our home ranch property the same distance from that of writer Black. So I know what my home ground country has produced and I was writing before I even heard of those other two, but very glad that I finally had. Again my name is Roger Browning. My book is 'The Reckoning of Rance.' Google my name and google the book, the appreciation of that would enhance the flow of the writers blood to my veins. For the penguin Group, it is my hope that you will stand up and take notice. Remember me. See me. Respect me as I do you. Not necessarily like or dislike me. Owe me that much as I do you. Just remember me because the timing is right and I am in the fight to be here. I have earned it now I believe. I write and always have. A chance given already paid in full before the date of this review page. My life is ranching. My ingrained love is the written story and I am writing the battle here as my phones keypad struggle relates. Remember me because I am in the fight for my writers life. My name is Roger Browning. A writer and born rancher with birthrights in Texas. Of other writers concern? Lol! 'Hallowed be Thy Name'.

This rating is for their Penguins Classics line of books. Fine collection of classic works of literature. Greek tragedies, English epics like the Canterbury Tales, Roman epics like the Aeneid, etc.
