ipad air 2 is constantly attempting to restart, and failing.

This happened after an attempted software update ios 8 last night. I turn it on, apple logo appears, it briefly turns red and powers off. It then repeats this constantly. I have add intermittent problems with it shutting down since I bought it - where the screen briefly turns red then powers off. These have always been very occasional and it has always restarted in the past but not this time. Battery life is good.
