The Planting Rite: Book One of the Rememberer's Tale

The Planting Rite, Kip Parker's first novel, is set in pre-patriarchal Europe. This unique tale of an all women's tribe facing life-altering decisions bespeaks a time when women were free to be strong and capable, independent and resilient. This is a tale of clever, competent, joyful women whose lives are neither easy nor free of conflict, but their sense of safety and their overt strength shine through making this a delightful read for women in particular and anyone who would like to experience a time before the dominance.

Kip Parker is a Dianic witch and a member of the Re-Formed Congregation of the Goddess, International. She is currently pursuing a degree in RCGI's famed Women's Thealogical Institute. She lives in the hinterlands of Middle America, surrounded by her eclectic lesbian family. At midlife, she has found the love of her life and the courage to tell the stories that have lived within her for untold millennia.
