Continuation of genuine novel included (7)
I believe the answer is:
renewal
'continuation' is the definition.
(I know that renewal is a type of repeating)
'genuine novel included' is the wordplay.
'genuine' becomes 'real' (similar in meaning).
'novel' becomes 'new' (novel means new or fresh).
'included' is an insertion indicator.
'real' enclosing 'new' is 'RENEWAL'.
'of' is the link.
(Other definitions for renewal that I've seen before include "Process of renovation" , "Extension of validity" , "what happens in a library" , "Continuance" , "Renovation, revival" .)
