I'm personally a huge fan of the series. I've been reading them for 20+ years by now. There are always up and downs, but the not good books are still better than others I've read. It's also great to see how characters have changed throughout the series and the wider Forgotten Realms / Faerun world has been affected by the books in connection with bigger D&D events.
Technically a prequel, but was written after Icewind Dale, there is The Dark Elf Trilogy which explores Drizzt's origins and escape from the Menzoberranzan. Definitely recommend if that's not what you started with.
The nice thing is that Salvatore released novels at a good pace. I've been waiting for the 3rd Kingkiller Chronicles book by Patrick Rothfuss for... 15 years I think?
