No, it isn't compatible with the kindle fire. In fact, I don't think that a fire owner can even buy it. This is really an amazon decision. They have blocked almost all reader apps and reader-related apps from the fire marketplace.

That said, CC will actually run on the fire, or at least the fire V1 that we have. However, it does not integrate with Amazon's reader app on the fire. The app is not the same as kindle for android that we now support reasonably well.
