I'm not the biggest fan of progressive side of Maiden but the album kickass
Best tracks:
-Coming home
-The final frontier (forget about the intro)
-Isle of Avalon
-The talisman

Thought both the intro and the first song was by far the weaksest part on the album, and I was certain this would be yet another Maiden disappointment since the return of The Dickinson. A very weird song that should've ended the album instead of starting it, imho.
But after that the album just got better and better. And the 3 guitarists has never sounded better and more creative. FINALLY you could actually hear 3 guitars playing at the same time. Also alot of the music brought back memories of the Maiden 80s, which almost brought sweet tears of joy to my eyes. :)
