By the way, I'd like to know your opinions on the artwork

Update, i have been able to create a good spine.

Please, tell me what you think of it.[attachment=49158:Kingdom_...hed_copy.jpg]

Have you tried continuing the front image over onto the spine? If you do not have enough image to do so, you can use the 'Content aware fill' option.

Let me try something, for tomorrow
However, for me, the title is very too big.
My opinion...

The TT on the spine is too hard to read. It would be better if it were a single colour, like white.

Also, I would try what Baz said, content aware fill or even Generative Fill if you're using the latest version(s) of Photoshop. Currently, the cover doesn't look consistent and looks like 3 different images put together.

You could also add an orange layer, set to overlay, on the back image so it matches the front.

That was my first idea

Great minds think alike

You could also feather in some yellow on the back to help match it up?
