Darksiders II Guide: Locations of the Book of the Dead Pages

The ancient pages of the Book of the Dead are spread throughout Darksiders II, and it's your duty to find them. There are forty in all, and for every ten you return to Vulgrim, he'll give you a key to one of the Death Tombs. If you're having trouble finding the locations, just have a look at the Darksiders II guide below and find your way to the locations of the lost book pages.

By the way, the Death Tombs are in the following areas:

  • The Nook (Blade Master Talisman)
  • Lair of the Deposed King (Demonheart Talisman)
  • Lostlight (Hoardseeker Talisman)
  • Shadow's Edge (Spear of Storms) 

Oh, and the Darksiders II Side Quests, Areas, and Relics Guide could come in handy too when playing this game.
