Review Summaries

""Attack of the Rockoids" is an exciting science fiction adventure series about time travel and romance, an incredible tale of an Earth man who dreams about a gorgeous woman from another world in a setting of a devastating war in space. A strange accident thrusts him into the future, where he hopes to find her, only to discover she's already on her way to Earth. But she's leading an armada of spaceships coming here to attack us. It's a spectacular blend of action, adventure and humor, a thrill-a-minute story that you'll never forget. "
