Coolreader and FBReader are both available on Android and Windows. Sadly their win version is not updated anymore. One of the latest binaries for Coolreader can be downloaded from https://sourceforge.net/projects/cre...1.zip/download (2015)

There's also Freda, a modern epub reader available for Win and Android.

Good or not is subjective. YMMV

Nope. Vertical text requires a full browser backend, like webkit, webengine or webview. I do remember reading somewhere that Moon fallbacks to a webview backend on *some* PDF's, but their epub reader does not.
