On Kindle devices books in KFX format delivered by Amazon have the metadata in a separate unencrypted KFX file. If the main file is "bookname.kfx" then the associated metadata file is "bookname.sdr/assets/metadata.kfx". If no file with that name exists then the metadata will instead be in the main file.
