My 4 hobbit party with 2 bishops is working well: saved 3 spell picks each for them. Just hit level 15, only about half way through the game in terms of ground covered-- as you've noticed, later in the game, the encounters are worth a LOT more.
Both have 80+ in their 2 'primary' books [wiz/psi and alc/divine], mid 20's in their secondary [can now learn level 3 spells] and mid teens in their 4th. both have 100 pie and int, plus bonuses for helm of brilliance and philosophers sheild.
Very important to have an alchemsit in such a group: have already spent more money in this game than I earned in my last one... so MANY spell books to buy!
I'll use vampire chain for one, ebon staff for the other, slings for both-- they just don't need to hit so often that I worry much about building weapon skills.
