Slab Rat

By: Ted Heller

Narrated by: Johnny Heller

According to Kirkus Reviews, Ted Heller's writing will "make you laugh out loud." This story of the glossy magazine industry has won critical acclaim for its wicked humor and unflinching examination of New York City "slab rats," who will stop at nothing to climb the corporate ladder.

Zach Post is an editor for It magazine with an impressive history: his father is a famous architect, his mother a socialite, and he has attended Colgate, Berkley, and Liverpool University. Or, at least that's what everyone thinks. When obnoxious new editor Mark Larkin is quickly promoted, Zach's secrets are threatened, and his future no longer seems bright. But he knows what to do-Mark Larkin must be eliminated.

Ted Heller draws from his experience with a variety of magazines to write a slick, hilarious "exposé" of the industry. Johnny Heller's narration captures all the biting wit of this fresh, clever satire.
