How to Read Star Trek Fan Fiction Stories on a Kobo

To read a Star Trek Fan Fiction story on a Kobo, download it as an EPUB with WP Downloader and copy the file to your e-reader. Kobo devices open EPUB files natively.

WP Downloader is a free web tool with nothing to install. It downloads the whole story from trekfanfiction.net for offline reading.

Download the story as an EPUB

Find the story on trekfanfiction.net. Its address should look like this:

https://trekfanfiction.net/writer/a-story-name/

Copy the full URL, then:

  1. Open the Star Trek Fan Fiction downloader.
  2. Paste the story link into the box.
  3. Choose EPUB as the output format.
  4. Choose whether to include the story’s images.
  5. Download the finished EPUB to your device.

You do not need to sign in. For this archive, WP Downloader downloads whole stories, not individual chapters or lists.

EPUB downloads are free for everyone. WP Downloader can also create a PDF after a free Discord sign-in, but EPUB works directly on a Kobo. WPD does not create MOBI, AZW3, or TXT files.

WP Downloader’s support for Star Trek Fan Fiction and its other fiction archives was ported from FanFicFare, the open-source fanfiction downloader.

Put the EPUB on your Kobo with a USB cable

USB works with Kobo e-readers and gives you a direct way to transfer the story.

  1. Connect your Kobo e-reader to your computer with a USB cable.
  2. Wait for the Kobo to appear as a drive on the computer.
  3. Find the EPUB you downloaded with WP Downloader.
  4. Copy the EPUB onto the Kobo drive.
  5. Eject the Kobo safely from the computer.
  6. Disconnect the cable.

The story will appear in your Kobo library. You can open it like any other EPUB and read it offline.

Add the story through Dropbox

The following Kobo models can receive non-protected EPUB and PDF files through Dropbox when running software version 4.18 or later:

  • Kobo Forma
  • Kobo Sage
  • Kobo Elipsa
  • Kobo Elipsa 2E
  • Kobo Libra Colour

Link your Dropbox account from the e-reader, put the EPUB in the connected cloud folder, and sync your Kobo. The story will appear in the library on that device.

Books added through Dropbox appear only on the Kobo where you added them.

Add the story through Google Drive

Google Drive works on the same Kobo models when they are running software version 4.37 or later:

  • Kobo Forma
  • Kobo Sage
  • Kobo Elipsa
  • Kobo Elipsa 2E
  • Kobo Libra Colour

On your Kobo, go to Home, then More, then My Google Drive. Select Get Started and follow the instructions. Enter the code you receive on the Kobo website to link your Google Drive account.

Put the EPUB in the connected Google Drive folder, then sync your e-reader. Books added through Google Drive appear only on that device.

Get new chapters later

WP Downloader cannot update an EPUB already stored on your Kobo. When the author publishes more chapters, paste the story link into WP Downloader again and download a new copy.

Transfer the new EPUB using USB, Dropbox, or Google Drive. It will contain the whole version of the story available when you downloaded it.
