Abjurant Champion would work far more effectively than EK, but would leave you with an open level. Maybe cap it off with a level of Mindspy (Sorcerer 13 won't do much for you). Unfortunately, you won't have many more options than that. Take the standard Gish feats (1:Power Attack 3:Combat Casting 6:Arcane Strike 9:Rapid Metamagic 12:Quicken Spell) and try to blend in; probably taking a secondary 'Tank' role.

You probably won't break the game no matter what you do with that many class levels missed, but if you play intelligently you may be able to shine as much as anyone else in a not-too-optimized group (I'm always surprised how many of those there are).
