This is what cover designers do for a living, it is a learned skill, and I have to agree with HappyMartin - if you're going to do this yourself and expect to attract readers it would be a good idea to study design and typography a lot more than you have. People don't expect to wake up and write a publishable novel overnight; they learn their craft. Same with editors. Same with design.
For starters, read about the subject; and as you go along, look at a lot of professionally designed covers in your genre, and learn the language.
How wedded are you to the title?

Thx meeera. These are just prototypes I'm working up before I give them to my cover designer.
And not wedded to the title but don't have any ideas for another either.
And agree about the serif in my name.
