Eddis, Attolia, Sounis

Cool! I'm so behind on the Paks books - I got to book three of the Oath of Fealty books, and despite really liking them, I was frustrated at the release schedule and lack of conclusion (well, duh, five books, but still, I'm impatient). One of these days, I'll finish the series, and then perhaps I'll get to these nice little short stories! Moon has done the best job of capturing a Tolkien-esque world and philosophy without feeling lazily derivative (though they're absolutely derivative, and nothing wrong with that).
