The most likely definition of predominant would be “best or superior”, inferred using the context clues popular and the part of the word dominant, which means leader or something close to it.

Based on the context clues, that is to say, the surrounding information of the word "predominant", we can conclude that its definition is <u>"prevailing, and the most significant or important within a category"</u>. Thus, the passage aims to convey that the novel was so popular that it became superior, the most preferred, among the works of literature.
