What makes this reader superior to the other choices that are already available such as iBooks, Stanza, etc?

I think that fb2 support is rare in eReader apps for iThings at the moment.

Fb2 support make it worth a try... Page turns are iBook-like... The app seems to be aimed at russian audience. It woud be nice to have Calibre server support.

I have not tried exLibris so I have no idea if it is good or not. But I can say Stanza is buggy and iBooks has a lot of non-standardness to it. So given the apps I have tried that handle ePub, I'd say as of right now, Bluefire is the best one.
