What's weird is ligatures work on other books. Just not on A Wizard of Earthsea. I even tried re-downloading the .AZW from Kindle for PC, added it to Calibre as a duplicate and sent it to Kobo as a new kepub and still no ligatures.
Have you tried rebooting your Kobo? If that doesn't work, reinstall that font and select it. If Ligatures are once again working, select the font you really want.
