Review: For Mature Readers Only!
Rating: 4 out of 5

Before everyone "thumbs down" on this review, let me state that "Alea Jacta Est" is one of the best of this genre I have read.  The events are MORE than believable; they are probable.  (Check out today's news headlines!!)  It is not difficult to recognize the book's characters in my neighbors.As my title denotes: This story IS for mature readers.  The violence is not over-the-top - although it WILL be, when our lives start following this story-line.  My 4-star rating has to do with the amount of foul language used.  It is heard more and more in public; however, I opt to not READ it.  And, normally, I would have deleted "Alea Jacta Est" when it became obvious that "language" was going to be an issue for me.I am glad that I persisted to the end, because it really is a good read.  However, I may not buy a sequel - unless the author seriously limits the foul language.  They may be few in number, but there ARE some GREAT books of this genre available that do not include this amount (or any) offensive language.
