Th R.A.Salvatore books are good, but a little overrated in my opinion, and the series is starting to become a little worn for me (though I've yet to read promise of the witch king). The Cleric Quintet was quite good.
Waterdeep:CoS has to be one of my favourites, I only read it recently but it was fantasically well done (and Ed and Elaine were a great pair, though you could clearly see which part had whose touch to it hehe).
I'd also highly recommend Azure Bonds (an old but good one), Blackstaff, the War of the Spider Queen books, City of Ravens, and the additional books from the Avatar Trilogy.
Looking forward to reading the Erevis Cale trilogy myself too, as I've heard lots of good things about it (and I'm a bit of a fan of Mask). Having said that it might be a while as I've just ordered a copy of Pages of Pain, a planescape novel, as I love the way the Sigilisians (Cagers!) speak :)
