I inhaled the first 2 books in that series.

I will not read the last one even if he publishes it. I won't disparage the guy here, but I am no longer a fan, and I have zero faith he will ever finish the series. And if he does, he gets zero minutes of my time and zero units of my money.

The first two really were good though. If he finishes the third I'll happily re-read the first two and then give the third a chance. I'm not starting anything new he writes until I know it has an ending though. That's also my rule for any series on Netflix.

Name of the Wind is up there in my top pantheon, right up there with the Hobbit and Dune (among others). I'm sad we'll never see the end.
