How is the new Rothfuss book?

I've been hemming and hawing on whether or not I want to read it or just wait for Door of Stone

Honestly? It feels like a cash grab. I got it from the library because I had suspicions. The meat of the sorry has been published before in The Lightning Tree. While it was decent and the additions helped round out the story. It's short, not really new, and nothing like the masterful work that is Slow Regard of Silent Things. It's no where near worth the price the publisher is asking for it. I probably won't purchase it like I have all the rest. I'm super disappointed in Rothfus currently. I know he's struggling to write/re-write/re-word/re-imaging the final book and I can imagine how tough that is. But he's used repeatedly undelivered promises related to the final book to push his charity and get questionable revenue from those initiatives. I want to still have hope in him and his integrity, but it's waning. Just my 2 cents.
