How to Read Stories of Arda Stories on a PocketBook

To read a Stories of Arda story on a PocketBook, download it as an EPUB with WP Downloader and transfer the file by email or USB. You can then read it offline on your e-reader.

What you need

Before you start, you will need:

• The Stories of Arda chapter-list link for the story
• A phone, tablet, or computer with a web browser
• Your PocketBook e-reader
• An email account if you want to use Send-to-PocketBook
• A USB cable if you want to transfer the file directly

WP Downloader is a free web tool, and there is nothing to install.

Step 1: Download the story

Open the Stories of Arda downloader in your browser. Paste the story’s chapter-list URL into the box. WP Downloader will detect the site.

Choose EPUB as the output format. PocketBook e-readers support EPUB, and anyone can create an EPUB without signing in. You can also include the story’s images in the book.

WP Downloader downloads the whole Stories of Arda story. It cannot download a single chapter or a list of stories from this site. You do not need a Stories of Arda account.

PocketBook also supports PDF. Creating a PDF with WP Downloader requires a free Discord sign-in, while EPUB does not.

See the Stories of Arda download guide for more help with downloading the file.

Step 2: Set up Send-to-PocketBook

Send-to-PocketBook gives your e-reader an email address where you can send book files.

On your PocketBook:

1. Open Settings.
2. Select Accounts and synchronization.
3. Open Send-to-PocketBook.
4. Sign in and follow the setup instructions.
5. Check your email for the activation message.
6. Complete the activation to receive your address ending in @pbsync.com.

You will use this address to send the EPUB to your PocketBook.

Step 3: Email the EPUB to your PocketBook

Create an email from your usual account and attach the EPUB you downloaded from WP Downloader. Send it to your @pbsync.com address.

The service may ask you to add your sending email address to its approved list. If the file does not arrive, check whether your address needs to be approved.

Sync your PocketBook after sending the email. The EPUB should appear in the reader’s library, ready to open.

Transfer the story by USB

You can copy the file directly to your PocketBook if you do not want to use Send-to-PocketBook or the emailed file has not arrived.

1. Connect your PocketBook to your computer with a USB cable.
2. Open the PocketBook’s storage on the computer.
3. Copy the EPUB or PDF file to the device.
4. Safely disconnect the PocketBook.
5. Find the story in the reader’s library and open it.

Once the file is on the PocketBook, you can read it offline.

Downloading later chapters

WP Downloader cannot update an EPUB already stored on your PocketBook. If the author adds more chapters, use the downloader to download the whole story again.

Transfer the new EPUB by email or USB. You can remove the older copy if you no longer need it.
