How to Read Phoenixsong.net Stories on a Boox E-Reader
To read a Phoenixsong.net story on a Boox e-reader, download it as an EPUB or PDF with WP Downloader and move the file to your device. Boox e-readers run Android, and their built-in reader opens both formats. Once the file is on your Boox, you can read the whole story offline.
Download the story from Phoenixsong.net
WP Downloader is a free web tool, so you do not need to install anything. Find the story on phoenixsong.net first. Its address should look like this:
https://www.phoenixsong.net/fanfiction/story/1234/Copy the address, then:
- Open the Phoenixsong.net downloader.
- Paste the story link into the box.
- Wait for WP Downloader to detect the site and collect the story.
- Choose EPUB or PDF.
- Select the image option if you want to include the story’s images.
- Download the finished file.
EPUB is free for everyone and works well for most e-reader users. PDF requires a free Discord sign-in.
You do not need a Phoenixsong.net account. WP Downloader downloads the whole story, not an individual chapter or a list of stories. The Phoenixsong.net download guide covers the process in more detail.
Phoenixsong.net support was ported from FanFicFare, the open-source fanfiction downloader.
Choose EPUB or PDF
The built-in Boox reader opens both formats, but they suit different preferences.
EPUB
EPUB is a good choice for fiction and fanfiction because it is designed for reading apps and e-readers. WP Downloader provides EPUB files without requiring a sign-in.
Choose PDF if you prefer that format. WP Downloader requires a free Discord sign-in to create the file, which you can then open in the built-in Boox reader.
WP Downloader does not create MOBI, AZW3, or TXT files. A Boox does not need those formats because it already opens EPUB and PDF.
Move the story to your Boox
You can copy the downloaded story over USB or open it through Google Drive.
Copy the file over USB
Connect your Boox to your computer with a USB cable. Copy the EPUB or PDF to the device, then open it with the built-in reader.
This is a direct way to transfer a story that is already saved on your computer.
Open the file through Google Drive
You can also upload the EPUB or PDF to Google Drive and open it from the app on your Boox. Read it with the built-in reader or another compatible Android reading app.
Since Boox e-readers run Android, you can install a different Android reading app if you prefer. You do not need an extra app to open an EPUB or PDF.
Read the story offline
After moving or opening the file on your Boox, you can read the story without returning to Phoenixsong.net for each chapter. The downloaded book contains the whole story as it was when you created the file.
An existing EPUB will not update when the author adds chapters. Return to the Phoenixsong.net downloader, download the story again, and move the new file to your Boox.
