I've only just heard about Diana Wynne Jones, because Miyazaki & Studio Ghibli's next film is going to be based on another book of hers, called Howl's Moving Castle - which, when I read the description of the book a few weeks ago, sounded just weird & interesting enough for me to go get it...
...sadly, it's out of print, so my hopes were quashed. I'll definitely have to look out for Dogsbody, though! It sounds right up my alley.
