Issues with Marvin and dropbox

People - many moons ago I purchased and installed Marvin on my ipad to use with Calibre. I was very happy, until it broke after an Apple IOS update.

I recently updated mu ipad to the lastest 9.3.1. (I obviously do not learn FPM), and ibooks does not like it. AHA, I thought, time to switch back to Marvin.

But, NO, Marvin is still not working with Apple. I am disappointed, but I was not about to give up.

I installed dropbox, made that my 'devise', worked out a new process flow, and I thought I had it licked.

But NO, not really. Marvin is now crashing when I try to upload more than 1 book at a time from my drop box account, even with my ipad lashed to my PC.

I understand that the manager of this thread is NOT responsible for the development of, or bug fixes for, Marvin. SO I have a few simple questions.

1. Is anyone responsible for Marvin bug fixes? (not redev to overcome Apple upgrade, just the fix for the crash)
2. If not, is Marvin going to be removed from access (I hope not)
3. Is there a better, fully operational, option for reading epub on my iPad

I have a lot of books that are in Calibre libraries on my PC. I only have the iPad as a reader, and don't plan to change. DRM is not an issue.

Thanks SHIRLEY
