OK, I finally got it to do it all (as it were): open empty, open one file dropped on it, open multiple files simultaneously when dropped on it and launch as the default program when I open an epub.
I added the "&" to get the multiple books, but took out the redirect output to /dev/null since it kept giving me funny errors. When I run it as an app the output does not show up anyway. Maybe Automator sends it to /dev/null?
Thank you both very much for the assistance.
If anybody else wants to do this on a Mac, here is what my Automator process looks like.
