What I've noticed is that for sideloaded epub files, the Kobo readers start displaying at the first entry in the embedded toc.ncx file (the epub table of contents file) if present. For me, that means after I play with the file in Sigil, it will start at the first page I want to read. Cover image, publisher information, list of books by the author are left in place but are not displayed unless I page back to them. The worst case file I have started reading at page 15 where the epigraph starts. The prior 14 pages are cover image, blurbs for other books by the author, some rather useless maps and 3 forewords (original by author and two by author and publisher for the 25th anniversary republishing -- did I really need two forewords dedicated to telling me that the science in the books is out of date but it was decided not to re-write the book to update the science?
