Fiction KDP Dark Book Cover

Job ID: 39720963

Budget: $10 – $30 USD

I’m publishing a fiction title on Amazon KDP and need a professionally designed full wrap—front, spine, and back—that meets KDP’s print-ready requirements. The mood of the story is menacing and atmospheric, so I’m leaning toward a darker palette; think deep charcoals, muted reds, and subtle highlights that let the typography breathe without overpowering the imagery.

I will supply the exact trim size, page count, barcode placement, manuscript title, subtitle, author name, and back-cover blurb as soon as we start. From you, I’m looking for a concept that instantly signals “fiction” while still feeling unique to the story, polished typography, and clean hierarchy that remains legible in thumbnail view.

Please create the final files at 300 DPI, CMYK, with bleed, packaged as a PDF for print and a separate JPEG/PNG for the Kindle thumbnail. If you prefer to work in Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, or Photoshop, any of those are fine—just include the editable source file so future updates are easy.

Deliverables:
• Print-ready PDF (full wrap, with bleed)
• High-res eBook cover (front only)
• Editable source file

Once I approve the first concept, two rounds of minor revisions should be enough to perfect it. Looking forward to seeing how you bring this dark fiction vibe to life.
