Sometimes taking an idea from a book/movie/video game/etc. can channel new ideas that will fuel new novels. Try some of these concepts out for size. Pick one and think on it for a good fifteen minutes. Muse over it while you wash dishes, take a shower, or fold laundry. When some ideas come to mind, jot down some quick notes. When a burst of inspiration hits you, write like you've never written before, and see what happens!
1. Always winter, never Christmas. (Chronicles of Narnia; C.S. Lewis)
2. Up is down. (Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End)
3. Nothing is true, everything is permitted. (Assassin's Creed)
4. There can be no shadows. (Ninja Assassin)
5. The trees like torches, blazed with light. (The Hobbit; J. R. Tolkein)
6. A red sun rises. Blood has been spilled this night. (The Twin Towers; J.R. Tolkein)
