Saw this on Reddit, it made me laugh:

Oh my sweet summer child. What do you know of waiting. Waiting is for the books, when the author rewrites his manuscript 100 pages deep. Waiting is for the Mereneese knot, when Martin hides for years, children are born, grow old, and die all without a sample chapter. That is the time for waiting my lord, when football season comes and Martin blogs about his beloved Giants and Jets instead of feeding his publisher.

Thousands of years ago, there came a wait between installments that lasted a generation. Kings were bored to death in their castles, same as the shepherds in their huts, and women read Twilight to their babies rather than encourage them to read, and wept, and felt the words scare the children away from ever reading again.

where were they going by the way, these ice zombies ? up to that ridge where the rest of the nights watch was camped, definitely looked like it because that 3 horn blow came from the nights watch right ? or were they going somewhere else ?
Not 100% clear on this, but I believe that the white walkers which are the thralls riding on horses are not human. The ice zombies or "wights" were previously human until they died and were risen by the white walkers.

They're going for the wall.
