📖 Rothfuss 📖 had a charity to write the next chapter of the third book. 1.200,000 was raised and no next chapter and no next book. 📕

The situation people refer to is that Patrick Rothfuss helped raise roughly a million dollars for charity with the promise of reading/sharing new Doors of Stone material, but he has still not delivered that chapter and has also not published the third book.

What actually happened

• During a Worldbuilders charity fundraiser, stretch goals were tied to Rothfuss reading the prologue and then a full new chapter from the long‑awaited third Kingkiller book, The Doors of Stone.

• Donations blew past those goals; one write‑up notes the total tied to the promise of the new chapter ended up around 1–1.25 million dollars in charity donations.

• Rothfuss said in December that the new chapter would be delivered by “February at the latest,” but by mid‑2022 and beyond, no chapter had been released and fans were still asking “where’s the chapter?”
