Abelian L-Adic Representations and Elliptic Curves (Research Notes in Mathematics (a K Peters), Vol 7)

Summary: excellent
Review: great reference if you are doing work in algebraic representations of geometric structures at the graduate level. There aren't very many exercises, but as a graduate reference text, exercises don't do a whole lot of good. great explanations, and clear proofs.

Summary: Serre is great
Review: This book, as all books by Serre, is very good. He writes with precision, always giving the reading the central ideas. I can only think of Milnor as an author to compare to him. Buy the book if you are interested at all in the material. I am buying all books I can get by Serre.
