Two Ways to Read ePub Books on Kindle Fire

ePub eBook format is very common for it's open source, and ePub books have been

shared popularly between various eBook readers. But it's unfortunate that Kindle Fire

cannot recognize ePub books. Nevertheless, we can use some methods to make it

possible to read ePub files on Kindle Fire. The following two methods are the easiest

ones I've found.

Note: Some guys may be confused that if KF can download public library books in ePub

format or not. Well, the answer is No. There is no way to get Library books on Kindle Fire

for the books are DRM copy-protected. Breaking the DRM is illegal.

Method 1: Convert ePub Books to Mobi Format for Use on Kindle Fire with Calibre

You can use Calibre to convert ePub books to Mobi format with Calibre which is a free

eBook management and conversion program tool that allows you to easily and quickly

port the ePub books to your Kindle Fire. It's compatible with Windows, Mac, and Linux

platform. Here are the steps to change ePub files to Mobi format:

Step 1: Download and install Calibre, and open it. Connect your Kindle Fire to the PC if

you haven't done this yet.

Step 2: Drag-n-drop the ePub files you want to convert from your KF to the Calibre

library. Highlight the eBooks and click Convert eBook".

Step 3: Set the "Output format" to "MOBI" on the right. Then hit "OK" button.

Step 4: Once it finished the conversion, you can select "Connect/share" from the top

right of Calibre to send the eBooks to your device.

Method 2: Install Overdrive Media Console for Reading ePub Books on Kindle Fire

Converting the ePub files to Mobi format by Calibre is a viable option for reading ePub

books on your Kindle Fire, but it's not so convenient, some guys may think. And here I

recommend for you an easier workaround: install an third party app named "Overdrive

Media Console". (OverDrive Media Console app is a free app offered by OverDrive which

is an American digital distributor of digital eBooks, audiobooks, music & video for library,

school & retail.) You can follow the step-by-step instructions below.

Step 1: To install "Overdrive Media Console" on your Kindle Fire, pls tap the top right

corner of the home screen and go to the settings of you Kindle Fire, click "More..." and

select "Device", and then set "Allow Installation of Applications From Unknown Sources"

from "Off" to "On.

Step 2: Install a free document viewing app such as "ES File Explorer", File Expert " and

"AndroxPlorer" into your Kindle Fire.

Step 3: Go to OverDrive page, choose Android option and click the small fonts link below

to download "ODMediaConsoleSetup.apk" to your computer. Then connect your Kindle

Fire to your computer using the USB cable and copy the file to the "download" directory

on your Kindle Fire.
