Brittany asked Victoria Schwab:

Why did you decide to make the settings London?

Victoria Schwab My mum's English, and I remember the first time I traveled to London with her as a child, there was just something...enchanting. Coming from the US, where everything is so comparatively young, London was my first taste of true antiquity, of history layered like strata in a city, buildings upon buildings, new upon old. It always struck me as magical, full of secrets, and then when I decided that ADSOM was going to play on the idea of "sources" of magic, the Thames seemed a natural pin in the map.
