Corporate Torsos Need Not Apply: A near-future cli-fi action-adventure comedy novel
She only wanted to find a testicle bra for her boss. But when she’s dragged into an international conspiracy, will she still get to clock out at five?
Post-Flood America, Nu Alice is ready to dig in when they come for her mother’s condo. She reluctantly takes a mind-numbing cubicle job to keep up on the ruthless, drone-enforced mortgage payments. Between her superior’s strange body dysmorphia and her coworker's vanishing limbs, she begins to suspect the boardroom doors are hiding something rotten.
On a whirlwind tour with her bizarre boss, Alice is shocked to learn the rest of the planet isn’t as submerged as they’d been led to believe. When airplanes plummet from the sky, and the countdown to new global horrors begins, Alice and her ragtag band of colleagues will hunt to uncover the identity of the puppet master behind it all.
Can this executive assistant smash her quarterly goals by preventing an apocalypse?
Corporate Torsos Need Not Apply is the rollicking third book in The New Espionage Collection. If you like jaw-dropping twists, high-flying hijinks, and sardonic laughs on every page, then you’ll love JR Pomerantz’s action-packed parable.

Corporate Torsos Need Not Apply by J.R. Pomerantz opens with Senator Sam Hurst informing Bob about the death of his colleague Tom Fletch and plot quickly builds from there. It is a realistic fiction amalgamating the components of technology, adventure and thrill. The narrative is not only fun and exciting to follow but extremely engaging. That combined with lucid writing and interesting character arcs make you glide through the novel.

This was a crazy, enjoyable ride through and through. What started as a scathing social commentary evolves into a globe-trotting adventure.
J.R. Pomerantz created a look into what our future could hold, like uncaring businesses physically chaining employees to desks and claiming it is for safety.
I enjoyed the characters and each person stuck out as unique. I never knew where the story was going. This is a great read for anyone who wants a witty look at how we choose to live.

Nope, not my favorite
Where to even begin. Just not my style. To all over the place, the plot cohesion I found awful. Realistic? Not a chance, even with my healthy suspension of belief for scifi/fantasy.

Hard to read
Finally finished reading it! Hard to follow story. Feels like someone trying to write down the events of a dream or more likely a nightmare.
