The ePub works on other apps without any significant issues so I've already suggested the author have the ePub sell through his website too.

An Android "presence" through GoogleBooks? What about B&N's Nook, or KoboBooks' Kobo, or Amazon's Kindle4Droid(phones), or...? Or Kindle4Win8, which is for, yup, Droid-based tablets, too?
I mean...
whatever. If they
really want an Android presence, publish it on bloody Amazon, B&N and Kobo. GBooks is the absolute LAST place I'd put a book of mine, around sales. (Right behind Apple's Books platform, which is the penultimate location I'd put an eBook, for the same reason...pretty lousy sales.) YOU did tell him or her all this already, yes?
Offered solely fwiw.
Don't assume that MicroDrie's solution will work everywhere, either. Tables are at best poorly supported in eBooks. Just...FYI. It's a clever-enough workaround, IF IF IF the recipient device and software
support tables adequately. OR, they support them, but the table misbehaves anyway. Which is the more-likely outcome.
