Your friend could try AniceSoft EPUB Converter.app that converts epub format to a number of other formats, one of them being rtf. The application, which I got in 2014, still works on the latest operating system. It's fairly accessible apart from the radio buttons which correspond to the various formats you can convert epub to but they can be labelled in voiceover with vo+/ command. I can't remember now whether it was free or paid.
