It is told from a first person point of view so you become embroiled in the character and his MARC Unit - that's a Multi-Terrain, All-Purpose Recovery Cephalopod.

Back Cover Blurb
A dying world, a terrorist uprising, and standing between humanity’s last hope and the end of the world is one cop, his sardonic humour and a modded partner.
On an Earth devastated by The Scorching climate event, the Drathken land their giant plantships with the promise of healing the planet. Joshua Nkosi, a sea-cop, vlogs and jokes his way through an easy life guarding a deep-sea mining operation while watching old vids. That is, until he and his tentacled MARC Unit get caught up in a plot to steal radiation rich materials from the seabed, fuelling the terrorists’ plan to destroy a Drathken plantship, and ultimately end the alien/human alliance.
Nkosi and MARC are forced to enter the Burnout Zone, and with the clock ticking, come face to face with humanity’s stark future when the hunt for the terrorist’s lab takes a devastating twist of fate. Temperatures soar, and conspiracies deepen as Nkosi forges into a dark journey of discovery—one humanity desperately needs to listen to.
The planet is pleading for help, but who is there left to listen?
“…staggeringly original and timely release from a masterful voice in modern sci-fi.” SPR Review
