If you can, find the experimental Bookshare options, and turn on EPUB downloading. Then, if you use Emacspeak, you can put it in your EBooks folder and read it with that. If not, I'm sure Firefox can read them with an addon. If not, use Pandoc to convert them to whatever format you can open, and read it like that.
