Fearful Symmetry and the MU anthology books

So when Fearful Symmetry (eventually) comes out, its obviously going to be dealing with the Mirror Universe quite a bit. Now, I've just finished reading Obsidian Alliances, the second MU anthology book after Glass Empires (out of the two, I'd say I preferred GE, if only for The Sorrows of The Empire) and I'm left wondering how these stories will play in the wider TrekLit universe.

What I'm basically asking, for anyone who would happen to know, is: Will the events of the MU anthology books will be referenced or affect the storyline of Fearful Symmetry?
 
Judging by this
Parallel stories set in both universes reflect and build upon each other in this Two-in-One "Flip Book," the continuation of both the ongoing DS9 saga as well as the Mirror Universe line of books.
sentence in the FS blurb and the Mirror Universe subtitle, I'm assuming it probably will take those stories into account. Now, I'm not involved with the books in anyway, so please don't take this as a confirmation, I'm just guessing based on available evidence.

I'm not sure how much referencing there will be, but I can say that FS will be consistent with the MU of the two trade paperbacks from last year. :)

It's been said that part of the reason behind Saturn's Children was to explain how Kira went from the disgraced position we last saw her in during the televised MU episodes and back to the post of Intendant of Bajor which she occupied in Warpath. So, yes, Saturn's Children and probably the rest of those anthologies are intended to be 'in continuity' with the Deep Space Nine Relaunch.

EDIT: Would you look at that? Two hours since anybody posted to the thread and KRAD still manages to slip in before me.

Fictitiously yours, Trent Roman
 
Thanks all for the great answers. Glad to hear that everything's still being kept in continuity in TrekLit.
