On Mantano... I bought it also, but was horrified at how "big" it is. 160Mb as compared to the 20-40 of nearly all the others. No excuse for that, there's nothing about it that's 120Mb more special than anyone else's. Its bloat.
I would check that again. It is only 52.6MB on my iPad (exclusive of content). It does PDF and 2 ePub modes ('legacy' ePub and ePub3). Mantano also offers inexpensive cloud storage that syncs between devices (Android or iOS), OPDS support, hyphenation toggle, text & background color customization. And it supports Adobe DRM if you need that.

One of the OPDS 'stores' is a collection of short ePub3 samples. Very interesting. MathML at last!

I like Marvin, too, but cross-platform is an important feature for me.
