Epub not working.

Why does my epub not allow me to read it? When I go onto a certain book it comes up with something and just spams it. This does not happen with other epubs I have downloaded.

epub files not working I've read through a few threads on this issue, mostly from some time ago, but none seem to offer a solution, or explanation as to why Apple have changed how books works so that any epub documents no longer work. I'm running Ventura but am aware that others have had issues with earlier os versions also. I have a library of several hundred epub books, direct from the publishers (not via apple store) & none work since updating to Ventura. I've tried deleting them & re-adding & even getting new epub files of some from the publishers. I've tried re-setting books also. I have seen some folks suggesting converting epub files to PDF but why do we, as customers, accept that? epub is a valid format & why should we allow Apple to do anything that means purchases aren't usable?

Cannot open local files on apple books I was able to open those files (epub) some time ago, however, recently, when I clicked those files on desktop or bookshelves in books. The page flashes to exit automatically. If anyone know how to solve the issues, please let me know. Thank you in advance.

Contact the publisher of the problem book.
