Reviews of King's upcoming 11/22/63 are starting to pop up here and there on the net but I have to admit that I haven't read one of them from start to finish. The ones that I have found reveal way too much for my taste so be ware if you find one, there are spoilers. And why post reviews so early? The book is still 1½ month away...
Scribner sent out an email about this excerpt from 11/22/63 today. It looks though as if it's the same as Dread Central posted some time ago... But if you haven't checked it out, make sure you do.
Amazon.ca has a signed edition of 11/22/63 listed. The publisher is Scribner and it sells for CDN$ 93.57 and has a different cover compared to the trade edition.

Both Scribner and Hodder & Stoughton has promotion sites for 11/22/63. On Hodders you can see this image. I have no idea though if it's the cover of just a promotional image.
[edit] This is not the cover. Just something they will use to promote the book. It looks good though.
On November 22, 1963, three shots rang out in Dallas,
President Kennedy died, and the world changed.
If you had the chance to change history, would you?
Would the consequences be worth it?
Jake Epping is a thirty-five-year-old high school English teacher in Lisbon Falls, Maine, who makes extra money teaching adults in the GED program. He receives an essay from one of the students—a gruesome, harrowing first person story about the night 50 years ago when Harry Dunning’s father came home and killed his mother, his sister, and his brother with a hammer. Harry escaped with a smashed leg, as evidenced by his crooked walk.
Not much later, Jake’s friend Al, who runs the local diner, divulges a secret: his storeroom is a portal to 1958. He enlists Jake on an insane—and insanely possible—mission to try to prevent the Kennedy assassination. So begins Jake’s new life as George Amberson and his new world of Elvis and JFK, of big American cars and sock hops, of a troubled loner named Lee Harvey Oswald and a beautiful high school librarian named Sadie Dunhill, who becomes the love of Jake’s life—a life that transgresses all the normal rules of time.
