All of TBK including that chapter which is so great
The Bible
Commentarii de Bello Gallico :^)

I can still remember being about 18 years old, reading the book, just puttering along, plot-plot-plot, then this part begins and I sat up straight and thought. "Yes. This is the real shit. I am reading the real shit now."
Searching the phrase confirmed what I'd independently thought for myself. Moreover, I found a stand-alone copy in a bookstore later, like the OP's.
Posting in this thread to say "The Devil" is a criminally underrated chapter.

I loved the Devil bit so much; I got to that part during the summer while I was sitting by a cozy lake. Good times
