KDEReader

KDE Reader is a program which allows reading Gutenberg texts in the comfortable desktop KDE environment. Instead of downloading texts and opening them in an editor, just fire up KDE Reader, search a nice book and read it. It will take care of  downloading, converting, displaying for you. It's like having a library inside your OS. When you're done reading, you can bookmark the place you left just like any other book.
