No, only to the Saavik-backstory elements they have in common. TPP is mainly a movie-era story (between TMP and TWOK) about a Romulan bioweapon attack on Earth, but it features a couple of extended flashbacks to Saavik's origin story. UT is about the year in Saavik's life following The Voyage Home, and also has flashbacks to Saavik's formative years, which are mostly but not entirely compatible with TPP's flashbacks.
"Enigma Tales" by Una McCormack has arrived Down Under! Pictures on Thursday night.
EDIT:
Turned out to be a big week!

Picked it up today.If you had a calendar, you would know...
(Pic below.)Galaxy also had in stock the coil-bound Kelvin Timeline "16-Month Calendar, 2018" diary (pictured in a previous post), which I'd received via Amazon a few weeks ago.

I'm currently rereading the Phoenix novels by Marshak and Culbreath because I just
picked up an original Bantam copy of Triangle. In damn near mint condition!
Folk, the beginning of Star Trek (indeed ALL) mainstream slash fiction.
And I paid a single dollar.
Garage sales rule!

Check out what has arrived at Galaxy Bookshop in Sydney, Australia! "Hidden Universe Travel Guide: The Klingon Empire" by Dayton Ward.
Is there more than one place in the world called Sydney as I was under the impression that there isn't.
The 11 thousand inhabitants of Sidney in British Columbia would disagree with you there...
