Somewhere in your iTunes library.

The problem is, that IIRC iTunes uses obfuscation on the book. I seem to recall it is mainly just unzipped into a directory named with a UUID, but if the book is sold with DRM then it will also be encrypted, and you will not be able to decrypt it.

I think iBooks Author recently gained the ability to export EPUB?
