A good alternate free reading app for that might be FBReader and you can find an APK for it on the official site (look under History and current version for a download link)...
https://fbreader.org/android

To install the app on the Fire you'll need to enable apps from unknown sources (in other words not from the Amazon appstore). Settings --> Applications

Once that's enabled you can either copy the APK over via USB or use the Fire's browser to just download it directly. Tap on the APK file and it should open the installer...
Thank you. I would to like to purchase and install FBReader premium and have contacted FBReader.org about it.
