The site seems to be down so its a headline comment! The next book has been 'almost ready' for years. I think its passed 8 years for this book(first half was released 2ish years ago). Another popular fantasy author, Robert Jordan, died before the last book was completed in his 13? book series. I hope a successful tv series($$) is a proper motivator and I look forward to meeting him at worldcon in august.
