Most of my reading is done in times/places where I don't have internet access. Does it work if you're offline?

I understand you dislike having to create an account but please do not let this stop you from just taking it for a spin. Feel free to sign up with a throw away account.
The first version of our app was a web reader, we later created Android and iOS apps that had to be integrated with our web application. Similar to Dropbox or any platform that offers a cloud service, an account is required to allow the user to upload and sync their eBooks across all these devices and related data seamlessly. We offer our own cloud service that is geared, optimized and tightly integrated into our apps to provide a seamless reading experience.
Integration with Dropbox, Google Drive and One Drive is also planned.
That is not really correct you can open EPUBs & PDFs directly from the iOS app after it is installed. You will need to upload the other versions via the web interface but then they will be available for offline reading in the iOS and Android app
It works perfectly offline and syncs your highlights, bookmarks and notes once internet connectivity is returned to your device. You are able to search your entire collection and the download the books you want to your device.
See the screenshot below that illustrates this.
