Disciples is Strategy First's most identifiable property. The original Sacred Lands was a well crafted sleeper hit that deserved the considerable praise it received, while its sequel, Dark Prophecy, added a stronger dose of RPG-style elements and upgraded the graphics to the current look. As for Rise of the Elves, it's a solid product all around, especially when considered as an expansion pack. It's definitely worthy of consideration if you enjoyed any or all of the previous titles in the series, and also as a less than full-priced way to introduce yourself if you've yet to visit Nevandaar.
