Hmm. Considering you got the original artwork and they clearly shout fantasy and planet... I'm not sure if an affordable change would work better...

Maybe fiddle with the fonts or see if a closer-up shot somewhere would work better? Especially previewing at small size, because usually you come across e-book covers first in the smallest version on Amazon or other e-book stores, before people click for more when they're intrigued.

Did you read the various ruminations on how the Andrews Team decided on the current cover of Silver Shark - with input by their agency/publisher? I read them via LJ Feed, so I followed along there.

And how Ilona fiddled until she got Loretta Chase's Captives of the Night cover without any associations to other regency writers...

Even Devoti says she eventually paid a professional to make her cover.
