Summary:

Here one minute...there the next, from the Napoleonic Wars to Sherwood Forest, from Agamemnon's Greece to the deck of the doomed Titanic, a band of greedy dwarves race through history. They are immortal yet human, timeless but always late, capable of inter-cosmic travel yet unable to tie their own shoelaces. Stealing in one century and hiding out in another, they are the most extraordinary gang ever let loose on this or any other universe. They are the Time Bandits.
