Many thanks in advance!
There is a beta version of calibre for ARM64.

Follow the Manual binary install for Linux:

https://calibre-ebook.com/download_linux

Code:
sudo mkdir -p /opt/calibre && sudo rm -rf /opt/calibre/* && sudo tar xvf /path/to/downloaded/calibre-tarball.txz -C /opt/calibre && sudo /opt/calibre/calibre_postinstall]
That should work depending on you OS.
