I don't judge a books value by it's cover. I look at the price per kilogram as well as its total mass. If the content is lacking you at least have the pleasure of a resounding thud or even a scream from a hapless user when the tome comes back to earth after you launch it. Getting to the point, I vote that it be maintained as one volume.
