Would it be weird to know that I am super excited for the Vatican Secret Archives book to be released? Maybe, but I am. And this limited edition tome may not reveal any earth shattering secret, but it will be bad ass (as bad ass as the Vatican gets).
And if you are a true collector, the chance to own a hand bound, felt edition of the book exists, with rumors saying that it may even come with an opportunity to visit the actual archives. The Vatican Secret Archives basically tell Dan Brown to suck it.
