I was inspired to undertake math as a career after watching a documentary on the proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. As such it's been a small goal of mine to understand Wiles et al's proof. 


In a similar vein to [this question](https://mathoverflow.net/questions/73075/a-recommended-roadmap-into-inner-models), I was hoping to get a roadmap as to the required topics, with either suggested books or papers to read, I would be required to learn undertake this task. I am, in particular, looking for expository papers on Galois representations of elliptic curves and deformations of Galois representations.


As for my background I am currently a first year graduate student with the usual algebra, analysis, and topology prerequisites. I also have a course in algebraic number theory (up to the proof of the finiteness of class numbers), modular forms, and algebraic curves (up to Riemann-Roch) under my belt. I am also currently working through Silverman's AEC.


Thank you in advance for any advice given.



A recommended roadmap to Fermat's Last Theorem
What about 


* Cornell-Silverman-Stevens, Modular Forms and Fermat's Last Theorem
* Darmon-Diamond-Taylor, Fermat's Last Theorem, <http://modular.math.washington.edu/edu/2011/581g/misc/Darmon-Diamond-Taylor-Fermats_Last_Theorem.pdf>
* Diamond-Shurman, A First Course in Modular Forms
* some of Milne's course notes <http://jmilne.org/math/CourseNotes/index.html>
* William Stein's course notes <http://sage.math.washington.edu/edu/Fall2003/252/lectures/>?
