I've created an awesome Japanese Manga Fixed Layout ePub...but because of the page layout, the back of the book is the start of the book. To solve the problem for iBooks I simply have a stop page with an internal link to jump to the first page (the last page of the book)...but that doesn't work on the Kobo Vox.

Is there a way to have my Fixed Layout ePub start on a certain page for the Vox? If I switch the layout none of the spreads will display properly.

I've tried tweaking the <guide> element in the OPF with type="start" or type="text" with the correct link to the page I want, but it didn't work with iBooks, so I don't know if it'll work with the Vox.

All I need is some method to have the book jump to the last page and I've run out of ideas. Any help?
