Have you done any research at all on the kepub format? It's nothing like the KFX abomination, which kepub pre-dates by many years. Once its DRM is removed you have a perfectly serviceable epub which should be readable by any epub renderer. The kepub renderer is newer and webkit-based so supports a wider range of CSS.

You could even open a kepub in an epub editor if you wanted. It's not a particularly pleasant thing to do because of all the special <span class="koboSpan">s which the kepub renderer uses for registering position in book, but they should be harmless unless, for reasons I fail to grasp, you've created a CSS style for a bare <span>.
