If I wrote a novel, I would probably do it in LaTeX, but Markdown is a good choice. Its philosophy is to prefer clean "plain as possible" source code over advanced markup. This can be annoying when documenting code or making complex reports with lots of tables and lists. But novels are just long blocks of loosely structured text.
