A novel is defined as fiction. It's made up, a work of the author's imagination.

Sometimes a novel can be partly based on a real incident or incorporate some actual events, but it is still the author's invention. If the author says this book is a novel, it is not a true story, meaning that is it not a factual account of things that really happened.
