I use Linux instead of Windows and have no access to Windows machines... will I be able to read eBooks?

For what I know I will never be able to read ePub with Adobe DRM (it necessitate a Windows software and anyway I dislike it politically) but can I read ePub without Adobe?
For example I cannot read this http://www.ibs.it/ebook/Canavan-Trud...842918745.html but can I read this http://www.ibs.it/eBook/universo-dis...865300893.html?
It's with a DRM called 'social DRM with watermark' or something like that... if I buy it with mine PC moving it directly to the Opus I will be able to read it instantly?
