Although I've loved all of them my vote goes to Wizard and Glass. Maybe it was because I was just thankful for any Dark Tower book after King's long absence from the series.

1. The Drawing of the Three - love the expansion of this story universe beyond the first book here. Meeting the members of Roland's ka-tet and the intertwining of all realities - the big and the small. Both handled wonderfully.
2. The Wastelands - continues the drawing of the ka-tet with Jake being brought back. Very touching first half of the book.
3. The Gunslinger - "The man in black fled across the desert and the gunslinger followed." 'nuff said
4. The Dark Tower - the end arrived at in a honest way. And Jake's sacrifice. Very moving.
5. The Wind Through the Keyhole -a lovely story within a story within a story. Not necessary to the arc of the series but it deepens the mythos and character relations especially between Roland and his mother.
6. Song of Susannah - a bridging book that sets up story points that get paid off in the final book.
7. The Wolves of the Callah - entertaining but not enough forward story momentum. Especially after the flashback nature of number 8.
8. Wizard and Glass - it fleshes out Roland's back story but came at a time when I really wanted the main story to move forward.
