Personally speaking, my favourite work is the Silmarillion, though LOTR is probably more palatable to the general public.

As far as Christopher Tolkien`s History of Middle-earth series, I think they are of varying quality. The first four and the last three I enjoyed, but I found the volumes detailing the conception of LOTR to be fairly turgid.
