The starry backdrop provides an ethereal touch, suggesting that this narrative is grounded in realism yet tinged with the magical. The typography is split to maintain balance—the regal serif for the title reflects the 'royal' aspect of the narrative, while the clean sans-serif for the author's name keeps the focus on the book’s visual theme. The textural details of matte versus gloss create a tactile experience, drawing readers' hands and eyes to the interplay of elements. The design as a whole is simple yet powerful, making it memorable and effective in representing the genre.
