Not in my opinion.

[EDIT: But it's an ebook - why give you my opinion when I can give you facts?

Four times in Chapter 1.
Three times in Chapter 4.
Five times in Chapter 6
Three times in Chapter 7
Twice in Chapter 8
Once in Chapter 9
Twice in Chapter 10
Three times in Chapter 11
Twice in Chapter 12
Three times in Chapter 13
Nine times in Chapter 14
Once in Chapter 15
Twice in Chapter 16
Twice in Chapter 17
Once in Chapter 18
Twice in Chapter 20
Twice in Chapter 21
Twice in Chapter 22
Twice in Chapter 23
Once in Chapter 24
Four times in Chapter 25
Four times in Chapter 26


60 times in all, I think, out of approximately 106,000 words. So 0.057% of the words are a variant of 'the F word']
