It is a planned trilogy, with only one book remaining, Doors of Stone. That book has been in development for about 5 years now with no release date in site, although back in December of 2014 Rothfuss said without a doubt it would not be out in 2015.

So is this going to end up like Martin and GoT? Where Rothfuss spends all his time working on the movies and never gets around to finishing the books first?

I bought the first book a long time ago but have held off on reading it when learning about how long he takes to put books out. Do I even want to read it now?

No.

Its only a trilogy (he is 100% adamant about that) and he's been working on the last book since 2011. He has come out with a novella, the Slow Regard of Silent Things, in the meantime. It sounded like the last time he mentioned the book they were heavily into the editing process.

By the time we even get to a 3rd book adapted for TV/Movie, we are talking at least 4-5 years from now. Its not going to take him a decade to finish a book. He should be done within the next year.

Now, he does plan to continue writing "In that world", but Kvothe, the main character of this Trilogy, his story will be done.
