How do I play my Kindel books? Zorin operating Linux system.

johnfactotum commented 2 days ago

If you mean connecting a Kindle device, that's not something that's supported.

No, I have my books downloaded onto a hard drive. The .azw extention is listed as one used in Foliate.

"https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/foliate-ebook-reader-for-linux" states "It can open a slew of common ebook file formats including .mobi, awz, and awz3, as well as comics and magazine .cbrand .cbzfiles."

The files on my laptop hard drive Kindel books are: .awz? .azw? [image.png]

Is there any way to use the Foliate software? I appreciate any help.

Foliate can open Mobipocket 6 and KF8 files. These files usually, though not necessarily, have the extensions .mobi, .azw, or .azw3.

The "awz" in the blog post appears to be a typo.
