Yes, AdobeViewer is the default epub reader out of the box. If you tap on the epub in the list, you'll just get the default. However, if you do a long press on the epub menu item, you should see a pop-up menu that includes "Open with...". If you select that item, then you can choose to either use the AdobeViewer or fbreader applications to read the epub. If you want to make fbreader the default application for reading epubs when you tap on a book, then, as Ronny says, you have to create your own /system/config/extensions.cfg file and make fbreader.app the first in the list of applications for reading that format. I think the line in the file should look something like:

epub:@EPUB_file:1:fbreader.app,AdobeViewer.app:ICO N_EPUB

The ereader has a Linux OS on it, and it usually can't understand text files that use the MS line endings, so use an editor like Notepad++ to create the file if you use Windows, and configure it to use Unix-style line endings (i.e. only LF rather than CR-LF).
