King's 11/22/63 is one of his best books, following a young teacher as he gives up years of his life to try to change the world by preventing the Kennedy assassination with the help of an ailing diner owner who just so happens to have a wormhole in his back pantry. It's a tale of unintended consequences (both good and bad) and an example of King at the top of his game.
