I enjoyed Book of Circus more than I thought I would, since I didn't care for the arc in the manga much. My only complaint was the pacing toward the end - I was really surprised that "Book of Circus" didn't include the arc that I imagine will be "Book of Atlantic", especially since Circus only came out to be 10 episodes. And it's too bad because I found Circus and Atlantic to be the weakest of the manga arcs so far to the point I almost dropped the manga until the Weston College storyline, which was much more fun.

This is kind of confusing, since the article title implies that Book of Circus and Book of Murder are being released together in one set, but as far as I know they are separate releases (I bought Murder but not Circus - if they are packaged as a single release, I wish I'd known). Giving only release info for Circus at the bottom of the page doesn't help to clear things up.

I love book of circus so much! Not only is it a good introduction to the franchise, but I can't think of anything that was bad about this. It focused on 10 episodes, didn't over stay their welcome, and gave me a wonderfully animated story of tragedy. What else could I ask for?

They are 2 separate releases.
