I have tried all three and have a strong preference for one of them, which has done, among other things, an excellent job of supporting calibre with its excellent software, FAQ and technical support via this forum.

I have also tried all three. For me the competition is between Marvin 3 and Mapleread. They are both excellent readers.
IMO Mapleread has the edge in the rendering of content, text and images.
I do tend to use Marvin 3 the most. In Marvin you can specify
Text Menu Commands in order to do for example online translations and misc. Wikipidia searchs. I read many English books and English is my second language, I am therefore very glad that I can use my paid translation service subscription from within Marvin.
Mapleread does have an excellent access to Goggle translate, but Google translate can't compete with my Danish online translation service.
