I just used markdown-to-pandoc-to-latex to typeset my NaNoWriMo novel, and ordered myself a 6x9 trade paperback from Amazon KDP for Christmas. It worked great. I used a custom LaTeX template. I'm also trying to do it with a choose-your-own-adventure style novel and am less sure I'll be able to do that since it requires more custom stuff to get the page refs right. But I think it's possible. I'm not really sure what would be impossible in pandoc-to-latex that is only possible in latex. Can't you always do custom latex templates and filters, and pass through other latex code?
