No, nothing reads Bard books. There is supposed to be a Bard app in the works,
but that will be the only iOS solution for those books. As I understand it, due
to the copyright exemptions Bard uses, they cannot allow just anyone to play
their content, they must partner with different companies like Hims or
Humanware.
