Answers.Text: Yep! As far as I recall when you sync to your Mac your books should be imported into iBooks. If they are, then the folder I posted should bring you there. If not, there's likely a way to extract the books from the actual device backup.

  If you sync your phone to your computer, you should be able to see all your files in this location:
  `~/Library/Containers/com.apple.BKAgentService/Data/Documents/iBooks/Books`
  Use a terminal to go there, or press CMD+Shift+G in Finder and paste in the path.
  
  Note that your books will not be named as titles but rather the hash of the file. With some basic plist hacking and bash scripting you can rename them so something useful, or just throw them into Calibre and let it do it's thing.
