After stumbling on some interesting novels (ghostwalker, master of chains etc). I find myself wanting to know more about these '4 book' series centered around particular classes.

Problem is, after searching around the web and these forums. I find it hard:
- To find a list of novels belonging to a class series.
- To find out wich class series allready started and wich aren't.
- And to find out what makes every main character in each book unique compared to other wizards/fighters/whatnot. (for example, being an expert in fighting with chains or having ghostly powers like in the two novels mentioned earlier)

hope you guys can help me with this

The Fighters
The Rogues
The Wizards
The Priests

Some do well in showcasing the particular class (see Blackstaff for Wizards and Ghostwalker for Fighters) while others are good novels but you don't get as much the sense of the class (at least I didn't, with Black Bouquet I think it was)

Well, the easiest choice is to simply look here at Candlekeep. Or try the o-love.net listing.
