    Does anyone remember a story about humans visiting a planet where they had fruit that smelt so delicious that it was almost impossible to resist but if you did eat it, it changed you genetically into a different species that I think was immortal. Seem to remember something about the 'victim' losing their human face and a sort of beak would form. Sound familiar to anyone?

    I've googled it and looked everywhere but can't find it. It may have been a short story. I read it many years ago and would like to read it again. Thanks.

    I'm so tempted to ask about a UK SciFi series for teenagers that must have been on about 20-25 years ago, about a young lad who was running from his 'kind' on earth, afraid that they would kill him, and some teenagers in the UK helped him. At the end of the series it turned out it was all OK and just a rite of passage...

    AnneB??
