Uninspired and boring

The plot is basic. After a few mildly interesting minor reveals of the first book, there is nothing in the story that captivates. None of the characters get developed enough for you to care about them, not even the two main ones.
Spoilers ahead, so if you plan to listen, don't continue reading my review.
Rey is supposedly a 1000 year old half-demon, but he acts like a teenager, knows less than any 40 y.o. Professor and gets bullied by anyone with "authority". This is cringe-inducing.
Randall, the all-knowing, all-powerful wizard(ish) demon-hunter has no back story, no bases for his actions. What was he trying to accomplish with the black Knight army? Ridiculous. And he gets outplayed by Rey and Crimson? How did that happen if Randall is the only one who showed any strategic sense at all. Even though his goals were unclear, he was wiser and stronger than them.
Erin is probably the only character that made sense, but the adventure she sets out on fails to impress at every turn. But what else can you expect if the main villain, king of the underworld, is described only as the "big bad" that needs to be stopped. They didn't try to destroy the underworld, mind you, simply wanted to replace the king... So the demons weren't the problem, the King was. But why? No explanation.

Voice actors did a good job, no complaints there.
