The Cloak of Reflection will be even better than SI: Evocation, as they'll fry themselves with their own Lightning Bolts, and you'll get the EXP for it, too. But, pretty much the only way to destroy Belholderkin en masse is with things like Death Fog and Incendiary Cloud, in which case you'll have to cast SI: Evocation anyway. (And, since you don't have the Cloak of Reflection, this paragraph is rather useless to you, but it's valid Beholder advice nevertheless.)

In addition to Cause Serious Wounds, (Necromancy), they also cast their annoying Slow and Hold, which I believe are both Alteration.

Depending on its duration, you can just use a Scroll of Spell Shield, instead of having your Sorcerer learn it.

Don't waste your time with Summons.
