Moon+ Reader Pro is superb. But still only 4 out of 5 stars for me. I don't care about the minutiae of CSS, Jon. Yup, Moon reinterprets it in its own way, but what counts to me is the
result. I mean, look at that
tweet of mine I linked before. The first screenshot there, on the left, is Moon+ Reader Pro. That's absolutely beautiful! More beautiful than Marvin. In no other e-reader I know of do e-books look as nice as in Moon+ Reader. I haven't yet encountered an e-book, Jon, where Moon's reinterpretation/"disregard" of CSS would make it unreadable for me, or that it would disfigure the e-book so as to make it unpalatable. As you perhaps remember, Jon, unlike you, I don't care about "publisher settings" in the least – I typically override all of them
anyway. So, I'm perfectly fine with Moon's display of e-books.
Moon's biggest weaknesses, to me (apart from the cardinal weakness of being
Android-only), are its sloppy
export of annotations (which is equally sloppy in Marvin), and Moon is weaker than Marvin in terms of
customization of headers and footers of e-books. In fact, there's practically zero option for customizing them in Moon, whereas Marvin is fabulous in this regard – I remember how hard Kris worked on making headers and footers fully customizable in Marvin.
When it comes to annotations export in BookFusion, it's slightly better than in Marvin or Moon, but still bad enough at this point – not
professional-grade. I'll be posting details on that and other BookFusion deficiencies I've discovered later on in this thread.
