Murasaki is an EPUB reader application that has simple user interfaces and various features (CANNOT open DRM-encrypted EPUBs) Key Features: * Scrolling Murasaki is a scroll-based reader like usual web browers, not a page flip-based reader like iBooks. * Pagination View Mode (horizontal writing mode only) Murasaki supports the pagination view mode. This is a hybrid view mode which has both a free scrolling and a snapping to column (horizontal writing mode only). * Swipe Navigation Murasaki supports two-finger swipe gesture to move between contents (Mac OS X 10.7+). To read through an EPUB, use scroll and swipe gestures on trackpad. * Multi Windows Murasaki can open different EPUBs in multiple windows. Moreover Murasaki can open different parts of one EPUB in multiple windows at once. * Popover By opening a link in a popover, you can check a related page, footnote, and so on quickly without moving page (Mac OS X 10.7+). * Image Panel By opening images in panels, you can read through text with reference to these images. * Searching You can search a word that is contained in a EPUB. * Bookmarking You can bookmark, and can refer these pages later. * Full Screen By entering full screen mode, you can view the EPUB contents in full screen (Mac OS X 10.7+). * User Style Sheet Murasaki can apply user style sheets. * Popover Dictionary You can look up a word in popover dictionary. * Spotlight/Quick Look plug-ins You can Spotlight-search and preview EPUBs.

Very functional ereader

A hidden gem. Very fast, simple to use, lets you control the files (doesn’t do library management), allows custom CSS stylesheets, and the scrolling is fantastic. These days, I’m wary about buying an app without trying it, but Murasaki works excellently and perfectly fills my need for a simple, but highly functional, ereader.

I've tried several other book readers and this is the one I prefer. It's got a very straightforward interface and it does the job. I read normally in iBooks, but there are times when I don't want to import a book into iBooks, so I need a simpler reader. For me, it's Murasaki: I've made it the default app for .epub, for example.Good job.

I have searched and tried many different ePub readers: Calibre, Kitabu, Kindle, Adobe, among others …This one is *hands down* the best one of all. Uses very little memory, it has tab support, and the ePub rendering is almost perfect (I say almost because it’s also dependent on the file’s format).Yes - It’s expensive compared to FREE. But free doesn’t always mean good.Don’t think about it. You can keep your free ones, but if you’re an avid reader - GET THIS ONE!

I had been looking for a good reader for reading on my Macbook Air and my iMac. I tried a couple of other readers and didn't like them. Murasaki is perfect for my needs. When reading Watchtower and Awake! magazines, I can open up the scripture references which are displayed in the articles as links. These reference links can be opened in a seperate pane by pressing the command button and clicking on the link. This feature is very helpful. An entire article opens without annoying page breaks placed oddly throughout the article like other readers exhibit. Formatting seems more natural. Illustrations show up on the pages where they should be. I couldn't be happier. Try it - you'll like it I'm sure.
