I believe you need to own a physical Kindle, for the Apprentice Alf tools to work. You download the book from Amazon, but you have to tell it which of your kindles you will be sideloading it onto. Then they create DRM keyed to THAT kindle.

With no physical kindle, I think it is not do-able. Someone will shortly correct me, if I'm wrong!

If I'm right, then the above suggestion to read via a browser might be the best option.
