Yes! The Two Towers novel ended with Frodo supposedly dead from Shelob, and Sam picking up the ring to finish the journey. It was almost halfway into Return of the King that we find out Frodo is still alive and Sam needs to rescue him!

That was such a great plot twist. I was kind of sad they didn't follow that chain of events in the movies. The whole Shelob thing was resolved really quickly, about halfway into Return of the King.
