my favorite thing about dogsbody by diana wynne jones (this is all going to be a lie because actually my favorite thing about dogsbody is the Entire Book) is that you can recommend it to fans of ANY genre.
>sci fi (high tech weapons! interstellar hijinks!)
>historical fiction (sorry for calling it that to everyone reading this who was alive during The Troubles!)
>fantasy (stars are people?!)
>mythology (welsh and celtic mythology! the wild hunt!)
>realistic fiction (young girl goes to live with various levels of evil relatives in a foreign country, deals w racism; on the other side, levels of trust in relationships, making friends when your social status changes)
>animal stories (a girl and her "dog"! what it's like to BE a dog!)
>mystery/crime (everything about the framing crime that gets sirius ~banished to earth, where is the zoi, who is The Master, what is the truth?)
anyway, it's my favorite diana wynne jones book, Which Is Saying Something. check it out from the internet archive here!

Sirius the Dog-Star from Diana Wynne Jones’ book Dogsbody

A few random little comics. Had to put two of them in one picture, cause otherwise it would have been too much to post :/

Something with MPMoW Caul and Dogsbody ❤️

(Kind of?) a redraw of this alternate ending I have for TDoDA, where both brothers survive and keep some of their monstrous features. Only change I made is that Caul ain’t in jail and he doesn’t have legs anymore. The two other pictures are from almost exactly three years ago, funnily enough

And Jacob at Derek’s Bloodsport Arena + Caul in the audience, watching 👀 he wasn’t canonically there, but I like to think he was. I think he goes there to watch ambro addicts fight, looking to hire them depending on how well they do. Lots of them know he’s watching and will try to appeal to him. Because obviously there is nothing greater in Devil’s Acre than being made one of Caul’s soldiers /s

I went into Dogsbody expecting a light hearted fantasy and wasn't expecting it to go so hard but by now I should know to expect nothing less from DWJ, anyway I'm just thinking about how the plot revolves around recognizing and escaping abuse. Sirius was only able to recognize his companion was abusive when he came to care about Kathleen and realized the similarity between his companion and Kathleen's abusive aunt. And they help each other escape, each has a promise of a better future and a hope for reunion someday 💜🥺😭
Also the story stands out to me with a strong masculine figure being the victim in a domestic abuse situation. I just find it very interesting especially for 1975 because I feel like, at least in my part of the world, it's not something that gets talked about much even today
