To me, they are all one book. It was only for the convenience of publication that LotR was split into three volumes, and I don't even own a three-volume version of it anymore. If I had to pick, though, I would probably weigh it by which volume had the most of my favorite chapters. By that method of choosing, The Two Towers would just barely edge out The Return of the King. I know that when I wrote my symphonies based on LotR, I had to make the one for TTT a suite because it had so many elements that inspired me, I had far too many movements for an even vaguely traditional symphony. I suppose that's a fair indicator of which I liked the most.
