Fifty percent of the books I downloaded (200 titles) in epub format from Gutenberg were completely unreadable by the PRS-505. Odd but hardly a show stopper as I simply downloaded the mobi editon from Gutenberg and converted it to epub via calibre; voila, a readable "Little Dorrit" on the PRS-505.
Now you've had a look there, you might want to take a look at the titles available here on MR! :-) Look for the "E-Books" link on the bar near the top of the page - Just to get you started, there's this one - HarryT's conversion of Little Dorrit (Illustrated) to LRF format.
