I also checked with the desktop ADE reader on my computer, and again the Greek words appeared as they should.
Is it possible that it is not the ADE reader's fault at all, but the way the Greek characters were encoded in original document from which the ebook was made? I do all the ebooks I prepare by hand, starting with valid XHTML files, so I have no experience with other methods.

Unaccented Greek works in pretty much every font; it's the accents that cause problems.
For fragments of Greek in an English book, I generally insert the Greek as a graphical image. That's guaranteed to always work.
