Would someone please recommend me authors sharing Mervyn Peake's propensity for microscopically detailed prose and labyrinthine structure? Crumbling castles a plus! Don't say Charles Dickens, I know about him already.

How about George Perec "Life A User's Manual"? None more detailed / labyrinthine...

I've never read any but China Mieville gets lots of Gormenghast/Peake comparisons, particularly 'Perdido Street Station'.
