Chinese Web Novels are a popular form of online literature originating from China. They cover a wide range of genres, including fantasy, romance, and historical fiction. These novels are typically serialized, meaning they are published in chapters over time, allowing readers to follow the story as it unfolds. Many Chinese Web Novels are written by amateur authors and are often hosted on platforms like Qidian and 17k. The interactive nature of these platforms allows readers to comment and provide feedback, creating a community around the stories. This format has contributed to the rapid growth and popularity of web novels both in China and internationally.
