Scat ...on CD

by Carl Hiaasen read by Ed Asner

Having Ed Asner narrating is a bit like hearing a great tall tale told by a favorite grandfather. His gruffness of tone and quirky interpretations of Hiaason’s usual band of over the top odd balls makes for a ruckus read. Sticking with his reoccurring theme of environmental exploitation of Florida’s remaining wilderness, this story starts off with the disappearance of a much feared and despised biology teacher on a field trip to Black Vine Swamp. Together three students become unlikely sleuths trying to unravel this mystery that has at its heart one Florida’s most endangered species. Hiaason knows better than anyone writing since Edward Abby how to mix serious content with laugh out loud humor and Mr. Asner delivers it all with rib tickling hilarity
