Cover art for Seventh Son Of A Seventh Son lyrics by Iron Maiden

This entire album, arguably, is based on seventh son, a novel by orson scott card. why i say arguably is because some people claim that only tracks 5 through 8 are based on the album. seventh son is actually the first book in a seires of four. The first four or so tracks have direct references to the first two books which focus mostly on the childhood of the seventh son of a seventh son. Tracks 6-8 begin referencing when the boy stops learning and begins teaching in a sense. This song actually summerizes the majority of the series, The birth obviously and the development of his powers "Then they watch the progress he makes The Good and the Evil which path will he take"
