Probably The Lord of the Rings. I read the entire thing almost ten years ago, and only remember bits and pieces. It's so long that I could definitely read it multiple times and still learn new information every time I read it.

Agreed, but that is three books. If one book was a strict requirement, I would go for silmarillion.

Nonsense, LOTR has been sold as a single volume for a long time now. I have the 50th anniversary edition, which is a single physical book.
