The Devil’s Bible: The True Story Behind the Codex Gigas
A forbidden book. A monk’s deadly pact. A mystery that spans centuries.
Deep within a medieval monastery, a condemned monk was given one impossible choice: write a book in a single night—or face death. What he created was the Codex Gigas, the largest medieval manuscript in existence, now known as The Devil’s Bible. But who was he? And why does this ancient tome still unsettle the modern world?
Unravel the myth of Herman the Recluse—the scribe who may have traded his soul to the Devil.
Explore the making of a monstrous manuscript—165 pounds, 620 pages, and a full-page portrait of Satan unlike anything in medieval art.
Dive into medieval minds—where medicine, magic, exorcisms, and scripture lived side by side.
Follow the Codex through history—from monastic silence to war-torn Prague, to its theft by Swedish soldiers.
Debunk—or believe—the curse said to haunt all who come too close.
Discover its impact today—from pop culture to digital archives to modern-day pilgrimages.
Part history, part legend, and part psychological exploration, The Devil’s Bible separates fact from fiction to reveal the story behind one of the world’s most bizarre and misunderstood artifacts. Rich with suspense, scholarly insight, and gothic intrigue, this book is perfect for fans of The Da Vinci Code, The Secret History, and The Library of the Occult.
The truth may be more terrifying than the myth.
