personally I would say avoid the elminster books like the plague (see the "worst books ever" thread for more information) Elayne Cunningham has some great books on elves (the Isle of evermeet series) and has written several drow books, daughter of the drow etc, troy denning is good too. I recommend the Realms of infamy book, and Realms of Magic to get a taste of other characters (Jander sunstar Elven Vampire is in the realms of infamy book I've loved him since i read vampire of the mists)

the two books also have some short stories by salvatore for information on how Guenhwyvar (sp?) was created, and how artemis entreri got his start. also recomendable as they are story compilations from many writers and give a good idea of how they write. (another reason I avoid greenwood were his contributions to these books)
