Unfortunately I have come to the conclusion that the epub format is
not mature. Different readers have their own interpretation of the
epub format(s).

As Greg said, Calibre will convert to MOBI and I expect that it works
perfectly well in the Kindle

I have a very cheap ebook reader for which I paid peanuts, and got
peanuts. However it renders the first 24 pages of the epub perfectly.

Will try it in a Kobo when I get access to it.
