Does it have any magic in it? My mom says that magic is just witchcraft and that witchcraft is of Satan.

The cover of any media doesn't sell me. What it's about however does. If the story is great it could have a giant dong on the cover for all I care.

There is no way I wouldn't read a book with that on the cover if I got a chance...

I'm not just judging the book by its cover, because the synopsis somehow sounds even worse.

The Spellsinger series is pretty good in my opinion. I think I have chorus skating but haven't read it yet.

That cover definitely doesnt inspire confidence but it would depend on what its about. From your little description the answer is no though.

The spellsinger books were ok, only read em once. Not my favorite by that author, but not the worst either.
Jack Chalker I think did a similar idea (might have been river of the dancing gods series?) first, and I think Christopher Stasheff also had a series like that. Finally one of my favorite authors L.e. Modessit wrote the Spellsong Cycle, which actually my least favorite of his series, but perhaps the best of the spell song type books (although chalkers was pretty good as well, if I could just remember the name). All of the river of the dancing gods books were good and I think it was in there somewhere. Ugh and how can I forget the first?

Alan Dean Foster is really variable in quality, so probably not, especially with that cover.

Yeah. I love great covers! There's plenty of books out there to read one based on the cover alone.
I go into most books blind beside genre, title and cover because it's very hard to not notice that by looking at it. --- Warning: Sometimes biased https://imgur.com/V0x5fw8 https://imgur.com/IOovUge https://imgur.com/zw7bqPH ... Copied to Clipboard!
