On Friday, 27 June 2025, my copy of Return to Perinthos: A Memorial Dungeon for Jennell Jaquays arrived on my doorstep, the output from the Return to Perinthos: A Memorial Book Fundraiser in the Memory of Jennell Jaquays crowdfundr campaign.

Jennell sadly passed away due to unexpected complications from Guillain–Barré syndrome in Dallas, Texas, on 10 January 2024, at the age of 67. You can read her full obituary at https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/dallas-tx/jennell-jaquays-11623534.
Return to Perinthos is a collection of one-, two-, and several-page dungeons put together by the gaming community as a fundraiser to help defray the costs of Jennell's medical care and funeral expenses.
The most-recent project update from 18 June 2025 mentions, in part:
We'll be working on getting Return to Perinthos fully live on our web store, Itch.io, and DriveThruRPG, so we are able to sell the rest of the books ordered to benefit Trans Lifeline. We will be distributing the digital version to everyone via DriveThruRPG once we have this up as well, and I will send one last update this week or next, so you know to expect an email from DTRPG. Trans rights and health care are even under stronger attack than when we started this project, so I'm very happy that we can do our part now.
Here's a sneak preview for some of the full Table of Contents and some dungeons that caught my eye during my initial flip throughs thus far:
