In addition, for epubs, i would not recommend a fixed indent (in inches or points). I would use a value that scales when the user changes the font size. A quarter inch indent might look fine with very small fonts, but it will look almost nonexistent with a larger font. One value I use, which looks good to me, is 1.2em - or 1.2 times the height of the font. YMMV.
In CSS:
p {text-indent:1.2em}
Having said all that, some reading devices will completely override the indent that you choose and replace it with their own... The better devices will allow the user to set it to their liking.
Cheers!
