ru_iphone: Несколько приложений на моём iPhone
Сначала на lib.rus.ec находите интересующую Вас книгу. Например, “Священная книга оборотня” Пелевина доступна здесь http://lib.rus.ec/b/42092/. Потом в программе на iPhone указываете, что скачать ее нужно с адреса http://lib.rus.ec/b/42092/epub (к линку на книгу добавляется epub).
Оказывается, Либрусек тишком сделал конвертацию в epub. Попробовал для других книг - то же самое. Фантастика. Пользователям Sony Reader теперь не нужно мучиться с конвертацией из fb2. Странно, что Либрусек просто линк не даёт.

Introducing the Shortcovers ePUB Conversion Program — Shortcovers
Shortcovers is excited to announce a new service - the Shortcovers Publisher Conversion Program. Publishers can provide us with their digital source files - PDFs, Quark files, InDesign, .doc, .rtf - and for a shockingly low fee*, we’ll convert them into ePUB files, load them up into Shortcovers and then give back the ePUB file so the publisher can send it off to other vendors who also accept ePUB files.
