Who is the author of novels?

This question is a bit tricky! It's like asking "Who is the author of music?" There are many, many authors of novels.

To help me answer your question, can you give me more information? Are you asking:

* About a specific novel? For example, "Who is the author of *Pride and Prejudice*?"

* About a specific author? For example, "Is J.K. Rowling the author of novels?"

* About a type of novel? For example, "Who are some authors of fantasy novels?"

Once I have more context, I can give you a more helpful answer!
