You'll need to get yourself familiarised with NR tools like Izotope RX to remove pops and clicks.
You should practice editing on podcasts or similar material. Just download something and start hacking.

Ah just saw this too! I was thinking tonight where I could find an audiobook that needs editing that I can practice on? Everything out there is already mixed and mastered... Do you mean hacking an already mastered audio book? If it's already edited, mixed and mastered what can I do with it? Try to find poorly recorded/mixed podcasts?
I also came across ACX audio submission requirements. Are these the requirements for pretty much any audio book and what you should work to?
