A 15-year-old writer has blown minds among social media users after she wrote and published her first magic novel, The Vampire of Lorania, in English.

Yang Nianhui, a student from The High School Affiliated to Renmin University of China in Beijing, has spent over five years on the book’s creation. In her 60,000-word long novel, Yang depicts a wonderland named Lorania, where the residents are vampires, discussing the definition of heroes from the perspective of a teenager.

According to Beijing Youth Daily, the book’s publisher lauded the book for its imagination, noting that this is their first time to publish a student’s literary work independently.

The book has been trending on Sina Weibo, attracting positive comments from netizens.

“As a 15-year-old girl, Yang has shown the public her talents in literature and English proficiency. It’s hard to believe that a teenager at her age can publish a novel, let alone in a foreign language,” wrote a netizen.
