I don't think your build is weak at all ... it's just strong in non-combat situations.
We have a player in our Forgotten Realms game who is a +1 ECL (modified) Avariel favored soul/sorcerer with Celestial bloodline, who wants to go mystic theurge. For those of you not keeping score at home, that means he gets third level spells at -- wait for it -- 12th ECL.
To top it off, he insists on being in the thick of melee, because he doesn't want to "waste" his Power Dive ability.
I honestly believe the group is weaker with that character in it. (The player is an engaging roleplayer, so the players would miss him. But that character ... my God.) My DM just shrugs and lets him do what he wants to do. He's pretty soft-hearted, so he hasn't crushed him like a bug, which he could easily do.
