Similarly, are there any gotchas that I should beware given my desired use?

Txt will work but Gutenberg files are full of _ for italics, * for bolds etc...
You can find Gutenberg books formatted in a much better way on this forum (mostly LRF files, for the Sony Reader) or on Feedbooks:

Manybooks also provide a more basic conversion of these books with many different format output:
