I would say sorcerer, since you would not need to try and locate, steal, or purchase scrolls to learn off of. They are just given to you. Easier to mangage, and saves money, IMO. As for Spells, that is dependant on playing style. Example...I do not waste time with stuff like Grease or Dominate Monster...I just get some good fire-power, like acid arrows and the such...that is just the way I play. I also hate area effect spells, because I can never convince my lackey to get outta the way in time.
